Playing Style Analysis

Small Sample

A Midfielder. Statistically, he stands out as a reliable supplier (0.17 assists/90). Note: this profile is based on 537 minutes of playing time this season. The three most similar players to Luka Gagnidze by playing style are:

  • Tomas Suslov(83% match)A Creator. Statistically, he stands out as naturally left-footed, a capable chance creator (1.2 key passes/90), active in the tackle (2.4 tackles/90), draws fouls effectively (2.8/90) and active off the ball (2.0 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions.
  • Giorgi Kochorashvili(84% match)Kochorashvili is the kind of midfielder who makes a team's engine room hum without ever demanding the spotlight — a Georgian metronome operating in Liga Portugal with a passing volume and defensive return that puts him in the top 5% at his position across both categories simultaneously. His 75.5 passes per 90 isn't just high; it signals a player who constantly offers himself, controls tempo, and connects lines. The counterintuitive read here is his 2.04 interceptions per 90 — that's not a pressing midfielder chasing shadows, that's a reader of the game who positions himself to kill attacks before they breathe.
  • Hugo Magnetti(82% match)A Balanced Midfielder. Statistically, he stands out as active in the tackle (2.4 tackles/90), reads the game exceptionally (1.5 interceptions/90), meticulous in distribution (87% pass accuracy), heavily involved in play (53 touches/90) and a high-intensity presser (press score 3.2/90), constantly disrupting opposition build-up.
