21 / €12m / 2025/26 / RB

Passing

How much passing responsibility he carries from wide areas, including delivery quality. This blends 41.12 passes attempted p90, 31.97 completed p90, crossing volume and completion, plus long-ball execution into one full-back passing pillar.

26.6

Progressiveness

How reliably he moves possession up the pitch. He records 7.53 progressive passes p90 and 1.80 progressive carries p90, with repeat entries into advanced zones.

15.4

Dribbling

How strongly he advances the flank with the ball at his feet. This pillar blends 2.19 take-ons attempted p90, 0.79 completed p90, take-on success, and carry access into the final third and box.

57.9

Threat

How much danger his actions create after the ball reaches him. He generates 0.11 xT p90 and 0.67 key passes p90, so this captures final-ball and territory threat rather than simple touch volume.

24.9

Game state

How much value he adds when the score still needs changing. This blends xT while not ahead with direct attacking contribution in those same states, so the full-back gets credit when his progression and delivery matter most.

45.9

Defensive work

Ball-winning and disruption work adjusted for context. The key context number is 1.37 defensive actions per 100 opponent passes, which keeps full-backs comparable across different team environments.

43.8

Availability

How available and trusted he is across the sample, blending workload with injury drag. He appears in 20 matches, starts 17 of them, and this score is then moderated by injury days, injury games missed, and injury episodes.

36.9

Overall

Final blended score across all active pillars for this role profile.

34.5

Archetype
