Playing Style Profiles

Elseid Hysaj

Hysaj remains one of Serie A’s most enigmatic paradoxes, a veteran fullback who has traded defensive volume for surgical offensive output in a limited sample size. While his 39.7 passes per 90 suggest a standard involvement level, his efficiency is elite; ranking in the top 5% for assists and the top 10% for key passes, he operates more like a deep-lying playmaker than a traditional stopper.

Gabriele Zappa

A Active Full-Back. Statistically, he stands out as a capable chance creator (1.0 key passes/90), a prolific assist provider (0.33 assists/90), meticulous in distribution (85% pass accuracy) and uses long balls frequently (5.0/90).
