Playing Style Profiles

Micael

A Ball-Playing CB. Statistically, he stands out as naturally left-footed, active in the tackle (1.9 tackles/90), commanding in the air (6.0 clearances/90), meticulous in distribution (90% pass accuracy), wins the physical battle (59% duel success) and uses long balls frequently (5.7/90).

Pierre Kalulu

Kalulu has quietly become one of Serie A's most progressive defenders — a ball-carrier in disguise wearing a centre-back's number. His 60.8 passes per 90 and 6.23 passes into the final third both land in the top 20-30% of defenders in the league, figures that reveal a player comfortable initiating attacks rather than simply recycling possession.
