Playing Style Analysis

A Active Full-Back. Statistically, he stands out as a capable chance creator (1.3 key passes/90), commanding in the air (4.2 clearances/90) and penetrates with forward passing (11.1 final-third passes/90). Note: this profile is based on 619 minutes of playing time this season. The three most similar players to Leonardo Godoy by playing style are:

• Carlos Romero(84% match) — A Defender. Statistically, he stands out as naturally left-footed, an aggressive ball-winner (3.1 tackles/90), wins the ball cleanly (1.8 successful tackles/90), active off the ball (2.8 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions and top 10% tackler in the league.
• Giorgi Gocholeishvili(84% match) — A Active Full-Back. Statistically, he stands out as an aggressive ball-winner (2.6 tackles/90), active off the ball (2.5 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions and top 10% tackler in the league.
• Sergio Gómez(83% 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. The counterintuitive detail is his tackling—2.03 tackles won per 90 also lands in the top 5%, meaning the creative output isn't masking defensive negligence, it's sitting alongside genuine ball-winning quality.
