Álvarez has built his game around one near-obsessive quality: the ability to move the ball cleanly under pressure, ranking in the top 5% of Pro League defenders for pass accuracy at 93.3%—a figure that separates him from the noise. He completes nearly 59 passes per 90, placing him in the top fifth of his peers, and his delivery into the final third suggests a defender who genuinely initiates rather than just recycles. The counterintuitive read here is his aerial win rate—40% sounds modest, but his 1.74 aerials won per 90 puts him in the top 20%, meaning he's selective rather than reckless in the air.
