Playing Style Analysis

Target Man

A Target Man. Statistically, he stands out as a constant goal threat (2.6 shots/90), a regular goalscorer (0.39 goals/90) and strong in aerial duels (4.1 aerials won/90). The three closest DNA matches to Idrissa Gueye:

Amin Sarr(86% match) — A Target Man. Statistically, he stands out as a capable chance creator (1.2 key passes/90) and strong in aerial duels (3.1 aerials won/90).
Marcus Thuram(80% match) — Marcus Thuram is a Poacher. Clinical finisher who lives for goals inside the box.
Rasmus Højlund(80% match) — Højlund arrived in Serie A carrying the blueprint of a modern target forward — raw, physical, and still being written. His goal return of 0.43 per 90 places him comfortably in the top 30% of Serie A attackers, a figure that flatters a player whose broader offensive contribution remains frustratingly thin.
