Scouting Report & Player Insights
Mitchel Bakker is a left-footed Dutch full-back who came through the Ajax academy before spells at PSG and Bayer Leverkusen, and later Antwerp, developing into an athletic, attack-minded left-back who likes to overlap and support wide play. At Atalanta in Serie A he offers pace, energy and defensive competitiveness on the left side, though he remains more of a solid squad option than a standout starter at the highest level. His game is built around recovery speed and work rate rather than standout creative or defensive numbers.
Progressed through Ajax's youth academy before moving abroad as a teenager.
Had a spell at Paris Saint-Germain before moving to Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga.
