The three closest DNA matches to Juan Rodríguez:

• Diego Carlos(86% match) — A Ball-Playing CB. Statistically, he stands out as commanding in the air (5.5 clearances/90), meticulous in distribution (93% pass accuracy), wins the physical battle (55% duel success), heavily involved in possession (61 passes/90) and central to possession (73 touches/90).
• Nicolò Bertola(85% match) — A Reading Defender. Statistically, he stands out as active in the tackle (1.9 tackles/90), commanding in the air (4.4 clearances/90), wins the physical battle (57% duel success), uses long balls frequently (6.7/90) and active off the ball (2.0 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions.
• Alessandro Bastoni(80% match) — Bastoni has quietly become the most dangerous defender in Serie A that no one talks about in those terms—a left-sided centre-back who functions, in practice, as a deep-lying playmaker wearing the wrong shirt number. His passing volume sits in the top 5% of defenders in the league, and his passes into the final third rank similarly elite, meaning Inter's attacking phases are frequently being *authored* from the back.
