Playing Style Profiles

Lamine Yamal

Yamal is what happens when a teenager refuses to read the script about what teenagers are supposed to be. At 16, he is operating in the top 5% of La Liga attackers for key passes, dribbles, shots, and passes into the final third simultaneously—a combination that belongs to a seasoned elite winger, not someone still in school.

Takefusa Kubo

A Dynamic Forward. Statistically, he stands out as naturally left-footed, an elite creator (2.0 key passes/90), a reliable supplier (0.22 assists/90), a dynamic dribbler (2.1/90), wins the physical battle (59% duel success) and draws fouls effectively (3.0/90).
