Best Alternatives to Álex Muñoz

Playing Style Analysis

Muñoz is the rare defensive hybrid who operates as a secondary playmaker despite playing in the trenches of a Tier C environment. While his 75.9% pass accuracy suggests a lack of composure, the data reveals a high-risk, high-reward profile; he ranks in the top 5% of league defenders for assists per 90, proving he isn't missing targets through incompetence, but rather through ambitious verticality. He dominates the air with a win rate in the top 20%, yet his ground game is defined by a curious passivity, evidenced by a pressing intensity that sits well below the league average.
