Scouting Report & Player Insights

Right-footed centre-back with a steady, no-nonsense approach. Relies on positioning, timing and strength in contact, with competent distribution in safer lanes. Comfortable defending the box and duels in the air, while still developing acceleration, agility and longer-range passing variety.

Son of a celebrated Netherlands international and brother to a fellow professional winger, yet he has carved out his own path as a defender.
