Playing Style Profiles

Zakaria Labyad

Labyad is the kind of midfielder who makes defences nervous without ever dominating possession—a contradiction that Serie A's numbers expose with unusual clarity. His 0.26 goals per 90 places him in the league's top 10%, and his 2.36 key passes per 90 puts him in the top 20%; for a midfielder operating at a mid-table club, that's a genuine attacking threat, not a statistical anomaly.

Jurgen Ekkelenkamp

A Creator. Statistically, he stands out as a capable chance creator (1.4 key passes/90) and active in the tackle (2.1 tackles/90).
