Playing Style Analysis

Target ManProlificSmall Sample

A Target Man. Statistically, he stands out as naturally left-footed, a constant goal threat (4.1 shots/90), a proven goalscorer (0.49 goals/90) and top 20% scorer in the league. However, he loses possession under pressure (1.7 dispossessed/90). The three most similar players to Dušan Vlahović by playing style are:

  • Benjamin Sesko(86% match)A Target Man. Statistically, he stands out as a constant goal threat (3.4 shots/90), a proven goalscorer (0.60 goals/90), strong in aerial duels (3.5 aerials won/90) and top 10% scorer in the league. However, he loses possession under pressure (1.6 dispossessed/90).
  • Agustín Álvarez(86% match)A Target Man. Statistically, he stands out as a capable chance creator (1.2 key passes/90), a constant goal threat (3.4 shots/90) and a proven goalscorer (0.41 goals/90). However, he loses possession under pressure (2.2 dispossessed/90).
  • Gianluca Scamacca(86% match)Scamacca is the rare Italian striker who combines a bodybuilder's frame with a poacher's cold efficiency, making him one of Serie A's most quietly dangerous forwards. His goals-per-90 sits in the top 10% of the league, but the real headline is his shot volume — top 5% — which tells you this isn't a man waiting for perfect moments, he's manufacturing them. The counterintuitive read here: his below-average pass accuracy looks like a liability until you realise a striker taking 4 shots per 90 isn't meant to be your build-up metronome.
