Playing Style Analysis

PoacherProlific

Mujica is the rare striker who wins games not by doing everything well, but by doing one thing better than almost anyone else in this league. His 0.68 goals per 90 places him in the top 10% among forwards—a number that matters precisely because everything around it looks ordinary. His pass volume sits in the bottom 10%, his chance creation is below average, and his press intensity won't win him any defensive brownie points. The three closest DNA matches to Rafa Mujica:

Vedat Muriqi(86% match) — A Target Man. Statistically, he stands out as naturally left-footed, a constant goal threat (3.3 shots/90), a proven goalscorer (0.66 goals/90), strong in aerial duels (4.2 aerials won/90) and top 10% scorer in the league.
Pablo Durán(84% match) — A Forward.
Gonzalo García(83% match) — A Poacher. Statistically, he stands out as comfortable with both feet, a capable chance creator (1.2 key passes/90), a proven goalscorer (0.56 goals/90), meticulous in distribution (85% pass accuracy) and top 10% scorer in the league.
