Playing Style Analysis

A Creator. Statistically, he stands out as an elite creator (1.7 key passes/90), a reliable supplier (0.16 assists/90), meticulous in distribution (91% pass accuracy), wins the physical battle (61% duel success) and heavily involved in play (55 touches/90). The three most similar players to Alexis Gutiérrez by playing style are:

• Ander Guevara(86% match) — A Metronome. Statistically, he stands out as a capable chance creator (1.1 key passes/90), a reliable supplier (0.18 assists/90), active in the tackle (1.8 tackles/90), central to possession (76 touches/90), switches play with precision (5.6 long balls/90, 61% accuracy) and a high-intensity presser (press score 3.0/90), constantly disrupting opposition build-up. However, he can be exposed in 1v1 situations and loses possession under pressure (1.6 dispossessed/90).
• Marc Aguado(84% match) — A Ball-Winner. Statistically, he stands out as active in the tackle (1.9 tackles/90), reads the game exceptionally (1.8 interceptions/90), meticulous in distribution (91% pass accuracy), wins the physical battle (63% duel success), heavily involved in play (57 touches/90) and active off the ball (2.2 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions.
• Federico Redondo(83% match) — Redondo is the quintessential "volume controller" whose surgical distribution and relentless defensive work rate suggest a player far more physically imposing than his duel success rate implies. Operating at a Tier C club, he is effectively the entire engine room, ranking in the top 5% for both passes per 90 (84.3) and tackles won (1.91), a rare statistical profile that combines the elegance of a deep-lying playmaker with the grit of a ball-winner. The counterintuitive insight lies in his goalscoring; despite sitting in the bottom 10% for shot volume, his 0.27 goals per 90 (top 5%) reveals a lethal efficiency when he does arrive late in the box.
