Man United youngster Charlie Wellens added to FIFA 22 for first time as rating confirmed

Manchester United academy prospect Charlie Wellens has been added to the Man United squad on FIFA 22 for the very first time in the latest squad update.

The Englishman has played predominantly at right-back this season, though his ability to play more advanced on the right and centre of midfield makes him an attractive prospect for the future.
