Playing Style Profiles

Alexis Peña

A Ball-Playing CB. Statistically, he stands out as commanding in the air (7.3 clearances/90), reads the game exceptionally (1.5 interceptions/90), meticulous in distribution (88% pass accuracy), wins the physical battle (58% duel success) and uses long balls frequently (5.1/90).

Unai Núñez

Núñez is a throwback defensive specialist masquerading as a modern ball-player in a lower-tier La Liga side. While his 86.7% pass accuracy and high volume of touches suggest a sophisticated playmaker from deep, the reality is more industrial; he is a safety-first distributor who lacks the creative vision to unlock midfields, ranking in the bottom 10% for chance creation.
