| Playing style | Sets early, protects the central goal and adjusts distribution to the opponent’s pressure rather than forcing the same exit every time. | Stays available behind the centre-backs, receives with composure and can circulate short before finding a wider or more vertical exit. His willingness to leave the goal gives the back line confidence to defend higher. |
