Box-to-BoxSmall Sample
A Box-to-Box. Statistically, he stands out as a capable chance creator (1.1 key passes/90), meticulous in distribution (89% pass accuracy) and heavily involved in play (50 touches/90). Note: this profile is based on 711 minutes of playing time this season. The three most similar players to Simon Sohm by playing style are:
- Michel Aebischer(86% match) — A Balanced Midfielder. Statistically, he stands out as a capable chance creator (1.1 key passes/90), active in the tackle (1.8 tackles/90), penetrates with forward passing (8.8 final-third passes/90), heavily involved in play (62 touches/90), uses long balls frequently (7.7/90) and active off the ball (2.9 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions.
- Reda Belahyane(87% match) — Belahyane is the kind of midfielder who quietly stitches a game together before anyone notices the seams. Playing in Serie A's demanding midfield environment, his 85.6% pass accuracy places him in the top 30% of the league, and his 6.48 passes into the final third per 90 tells you he's not just recycling possession—he's pushing it forward with purpose. His assist rate sits in the top 20%, which is the counterintuitive reveal here: for a player registering almost no shots, his creative output is genuinely above his station.
- Youssef Maleh(86% match) — A Midfielder. However, he prone to committing fouls (3.0/90). Note: this profile is based on 590 minutes of playing time this season.
