Scouting Report & Player Insights

Technically adept, ball-playing centre-back who comfortably carries possession out of defence and initiates forward play. Calm under pressure with strong short and long passing, good aerial ability and the agility to operate in tight spaces. Can be proactive in stepping into midfield to create numerical advantages, though risk-taking on the ball occasionally leads to errors.

Often deployed in a role that allows him to step into midfield with the ball, effectively turning defensive situations into attacking transitions.

Praised for composure and range of passing under pressure, but his willingness to play progressive passes sometimes produces high-risk moments.
