Playing Style Profiles

Evan Ferguson

A Complete Forward. Statistically, he stands out as an elite creator (1.6 key passes/90), a constant goal threat (3.5 shots/90), a regular goalscorer (0.34 goals/90) and a reliable supplier (0.17 assists/90).

Rasmus Højlund

Højlund arrived in Serie A carrying the blueprint of a modern target forward — raw, physical, and still being written. His goal return of 0.43 per 90 places him comfortably in the top 30% of Serie A attackers, a figure that flatters a player whose broader offensive contribution remains frustratingly thin.
