See Full Verdict + Share Card →Playing Style Analysis
A Poacher. Statistically, he stands out as a proven goalscorer (0.82 goals/90), a prolific assist provider (0.33 assists/90), wins the physical battle (56% duel success) and top 10% scorer in the league. Note: this profile is based on 549 minutes of playing time this season. The three most similar players to Dereck Kutesa by playing style are:
- Charalampos Kostoulas(84% match) — A Complete Forward. Statistically, he stands out as a capable chance creator (1.4 key passes/90), a constant goal threat (3.5 shots/90), a proven goalscorer (0.60 goals/90), creates high-quality scoring opportunities (1.35 big chances/90), strong in aerial duels (5.1 aerials won/90), draws fouls effectively (3.3/90) and top 10% scorer in the league. However, he loses possession under pressure (2.9 dispossessed/90).
- Ahmed Kutucu(84% match) — Kutucu is the Turkish Süper Lig’s most efficient offensive enigma, a high-volume shooter who combines the clinical finishing of a veteran poacher with the creative vision of a seasoned playmaker. While playing for a Tier C side, his output is undeniably elite; he ranks in the top 5% of the league for both shots and assists per 90, proving he is as much a facilitator as he is a finisher. The data reveals a fascinating paradox: despite being an "Attacker" by trade, his 85.7% pass accuracy puts him in the top 10% of his peers, suggesting he operates more as a sophisticated offensive hub than a traditional line-leader.
- Anthony Musaba(83% match) — A Inside Forward. Statistically, he stands out as a capable chance creator (1.1 key passes/90), a constant goal threat (3.1 shots/90), a regular goalscorer (0.31 goals/90), a reliable supplier (0.15 assists/90), a dynamic dribbler (2.1/90) and creates high-quality scoring opportunities (0.61 big chances/90). However, he loses possession under pressure (1.5 dispossessed/90).
