No roster-based suggestions yet.
Robust, press-resistant holding midfielder who anchors the center with strong positioning and clean distribution. Excels at shielding the ball, winning duels, and steering build-up through simple but progressive choices. Combines calm under pressure with selective aggression to control tempo and protect the back line.
Has filled in at right-back on occasion, underlining tactical flexibility and defensive awareness in wider channels.
Evolved from a box-to-box profile into a disciplined midfield screener as his career progressed.
