Playing Style Profiles
Hernández is the rare left-sided defender who makes opposing goalkeepers genuinely nervous—his 0.22 goals per 90 places him in the top 5% of defenders in this league, a figure that belongs on a winger's profile, not a backline one. His shot volume tells the same story: top 5% there too, meaning this isn't luck, it's a tactical weapon.
A Defender. Statistically, he stands out as naturally left-footed and active off the ball (2.4 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions.
