Playing Style Profiles

Nuno Da Costa

Da Costa is a chaotic, high-utility battering ram who manages to pair the disruptive defensive output of a midfield destroyer with the aerial dominance of a classic target man. While his 60% pass accuracy is objectively abysmal—sitting in the bottom 10% of Super Lig attackers—it reflects a player who prioritizes high-risk verticality and physical duels over ball retention.

Ali Sowe

A Target Man. Statistically, he stands out as a capable chance creator (1.0 key passes/90), a regular goalscorer (0.24 goals/90) and a reliable supplier (0.16 assists/90).
