Playing Style Analysis

Solid Defender

A Solid Defender. Statistically, he stands out as a capable chance creator (1.1 key passes/90) and active off the ball (2.1 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions. The three closest DNA matches to Abdu Conté:

Ghislain Konan(89% match) — A Solid Defender. Statistically, he stands out as active off the ball (2.8 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions.
Nuno Santos(86% match) — Santos is the rare defender who creates more danger than most attackers in Liga Portugal—his 3.07 key passes per 90 and 2.05 shots per 90 both land in the top 5% of all defenders in the division, numbers that belong on a winger's profile, not a backline one. His 100% duel win rate sounds like a small-sample anomaly—and with only 352 minutes, it partly is—but his 90.9% pass accuracy suggests genuine technical quality rather than a player simply avoiding contact.
Rúben Semedo(85% match) — A Physical Stopper. Statistically, he stands out as commanding in the air (6.2 clearances/90), uses long balls frequently (7.9/90) and active off the ball (2.0 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions.
