Playing Style Profiles

Lucas Evangelista

Evangelista is the tactical glue for a struggling side, operating as a high-volume progressor who blends blue-collar defensive grit with the vision of a genuine playmaker. While his raw volume of aerial wins per ninety looks pedestrian, the counterintuitive reality is found in his efficiency; a 60% aerial win rate places him in the league’s top 10%, proving he is elite at picking his battles even if he isn't a constant target man.

Statistically, he stands out as an elite creator (1.8 key passes/90), a prolific assist provider (0.26 assists/90), penetrates with forward passing (8.3 final-third passes/90), heavily involved in play (65 touches/90), uses long balls frequently (5.6/90), active off the ball (2.6 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions and top 20% creator in the league.
