Bayern Munich · GermanySCOUTING SUMMARY
Press-resistant attacking midfielder who breaks compact blocks by dribbling through the spaces between midfield and defence.
PLAYING STYLEUses small touches, body feints and unusual balance to escape multiple defenders. He prefers to receive inside, turn towards goal and combine with runners rather than remain as a static touchline winger.
FM26 TACTICAL FITUse as an Attacking Midfielder on attack or a roaming number ten in a 4-2-3-1. Provide width outside him and a striker who pins the centre-backs. Short passing and counter-pressing help recycle attacks after his high-risk carries.
An exceptional central dribbler who receives in crowded zones, changes direction without losing balance and carries directly into the box.
STRENGTHSElite close control; central ball carrying; balance through contact; ability to create shots inside a compact defence.
RISKSExtended carries can miss an earlier passing window, and excessive freedom may leave the team without a stable central occupation during turnovers.
DEVELOPMENT AREASEarlier release after attracting defenders, consistent defensive positioning and greater variety of passes to the weak side.
OUTLOOKElite match-winner for a team that needs individual solutions against organised low blocks.
