Playing Style Analysis

Ball-Playing CBAerial

A Ball-Playing CB. Statistically, he stands out as naturally left-footed, commanding in the air (6.9 clearances/90), meticulous in distribution (86% pass accuracy), wins the physical battle (76% duel success) and uses long balls frequently (5.5/90). The three most similar players to Tarik Muharemović by playing style are:

  • Ardian Ismajli(88% match)A Physical Stopper. Statistically, he stands out as active in the tackle (2.2 tackles/90), commanding in the air (6.5 clearances/90), reads the game exceptionally (1.9 interceptions/90), wins the physical battle (62% duel success), uses long balls frequently (6.3/90) and active off the ball (2.1 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions. Note: this profile is based on 719 minutes of playing time this season.
  • Lloyd Kelly(85% match)Kelly has quietly become one of Serie A's most complete defensive presences — a left-sided centre-back who dominates physically without sacrificing technical composure. His aerial win rate sits in the top 10% of the league, and crucially, he wins those duels at volume too — 3.00 per 90 puts him in the top 20% for aerial output. The counterintuitive finding here is his dribbling: 0.57 per 90 in the top 20% for a defender signals genuine ball-carrying confidence, which explains why his 60.2 passes per 90 doesn't just represent safety-first recycling but active progression.
  • Amir Rrahmani (86% match)A Ball-Playing CB. Statistically, he stands out as meticulous in distribution (91% pass accuracy), wins the physical battle (66% duel success), heavily involved in possession (79 passes/90), central to possession (89 touches/90), dominant in the air (3.4 aerials won/90, 63%), uses long balls frequently (5.0/90) and active off the ball (2.0 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions.
