Paul Wanner

Wanner is the rare teenage midfielder who wins aerial duels at an elite level while simultaneously threading passes with top-10% accuracy—a combination that defies the usual either/or of physicality versus technique. At PSV's feeder system in the Eredivisie, his 87.5% pass accuracy and 66.7% aerial win rate aren't just tidy numbers; they place him ahead of the vast majority of midfielders in a technically demanding league.
