Playing Style Analysis

A Ball-Playing CB. Statistically, he stands out as active in the tackle (2.5 tackles/90), commanding in the air (4.9 clearances/90), meticulous in distribution (89% pass accuracy), wins the physical battle (60% duel success) and heavily involved in possession (62 passes/90). The three most similar players to Jordan Beyer by playing style are:

• Jaka Bijol(87% match) — A Ball-Playing CB. Statistically, he stands out as commanding in the air (7.0 clearances/90), meticulous in distribution (85% pass accuracy), wins the physical battle (56% duel success), strong in aerial duels (3.2 aerials won/90) and uses long balls frequently (6.3/90).
• Malick Thiaw(86% match) — Thiaw has quietly become one of the Premier League's most complete defensive profiles — a towering centre-back who doesn't just win his battles, he wins them cleanly. His aerial win rate of 65.1% and duel success of 64.2% both sit in the league's top 20%, but the counterintuitive story is his attacking output: 0.16 goals per 90 and 0.98 shots per 90 place him in the top 10% among defenders, suggesting a genuine threat from set-pieces that opponents routinely underestimate. His pass accuracy of 90.6% reflects a ball-player comfortable in possession-heavy systems, and his above-average delivery into the final third adds genuine build-up value.
• Arthur Theate(86% match) — A Ball-Playing CB. Statistically, he stands out as naturally left-footed, active in the tackle (2.5 tackles/90), commanding in the air (5.6 clearances/90), meticulous in distribution (88% pass accuracy), wins the physical battle (62% duel success), central to possession (80 touches/90), uses long balls frequently (6.2/90), active off the ball (2.1 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions and top 10% tackler in the league. Note: this profile is based on 803 minutes of playing time this season.
