Playing Style Profiles

Jordan Lotomba

Lotomba is the kind of full-back who quietly does enough in five different departments without fully owning any of them—a profile that sounds damning until you look at the league context. His 88.5% pass accuracy lands in the top 30% of Eredivisie defenders, and his assist rate per 90 sits in the top 20%, suggesting a genuine threat in transition despite a dribble count that also cracks that same elite bracket.

Gijs Smal

A Active Full-Back. Statistically, he stands out as naturally left-footed, an elite creator (1.6 key passes/90), active in the tackle (2.2 tackles/90), wins the physical battle (68% duel success), penetrates with forward passing (10.4 final-third passes/90), central to possession (76 touches/90) and active off the ball (2.4 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions.
