Paris Saint-Germain · FranceSCOUTING SUMMARY
Complete two-way midfielder who advances possession without sacrificing structural discipline.
PLAYING STYLEReceives securely in the right half-space, accelerates through an open lane and then supports the next action. Without the ball he can recover wide or central space, making him especially valuable beside a more specialised controller.
FM26 TACTICAL FITUse as a Central Midfielder on support or Box-to-Box Midfielder in a 4-3-3. Let a holding midfielder anchor behind him and give him licence to carry beyond the first pressure. He can also support a wing-back in a 3-4-2-1.
A powerful, tactically mature midfielder who carries through pressure, supports wide combinations and covers large transition spaces.
STRENGTHSPowerful progression; pressure resistance; transition coverage; maturity when balancing forward runs with team structure.
RISKSIf both central partners advance, his willingness to support attacks can leave the holding zone exposed; he is not best used as a static lone pivot.
DEVELOPMENT AREASMore consistent final-third creation, earlier long-range switches and increased scoring presence after breaking the midfield line.
OUTLOOKReady for major minutes with the ceiling to become an elite all-phase midfielder.
