Brighton & Hove Albion · NetherlandsSCOUTING SUMMARY
Modern build-up goalkeeper whose starting position and passing help an aggressive team compress the pitch.
PLAYING STYLEStays 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.
FM26 TACTICAL FITUse as a Sweeper Keeper on support in a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 with a high line. Ask the centre-backs to split and keep a holding midfielder available. He suits patient build-up and counter-pressing more than a passive low block built around constant long clearances.
A proactive goalkeeper who supports a high defensive line, offers calm short distribution and can turn recoveries into controlled possession.
STRENGTHSStarting position behind a high line; calm short distribution; reach; willingness to claim space outside the six-yard box.
RISKSAn extremely aggressive line can expose the space beyond him, while forced central passes become dangerous if the pivot is tightly marked.
DEVELOPMENT AREASMore consistent selection between short circulation and the early direct release, plus stronger command when traffic crowds the six-yard area.
OUTLOOKHigh-level modern goalkeeper with the ceiling to anchor an elite possession and pressing structure.
