Playing Style Profiles

Leonardo Pavoletti

Leonardo Pavoletti is a Target Man. Physical presence who wins duels and holds up play.

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.
