• Sergio Gómez(88% match) — Gómez is the rare defender who functions as a genuine attacking weapon—a left-sided operator whose 1.39 key passes per 90 places him in La Liga's top 5% among defenders, a figure that would embarrass several midfielders in the same division. His 8.19 passes into the final third per 90 reinforces the picture: this is a defender who doesn't just recycle possession, he accelerates it.
