  • Medon Berisha(92% match)A Creator. Statistically, he stands out as an elite creator (2.0 key passes/90), a regular goalscorer (0.27 goals/90), a prolific assist provider (0.41 assists/90), active in the tackle (2.5 tackles/90), wins the physical battle (56% duel success), creates high-quality scoring opportunities (0.68 big chances/90), heavily involved in play (58 touches/90), uses long balls frequently (6.4/90), active off the ball (2.5 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions and top 20% creator in the league. Note: this profile is based on 660 minutes of playing time this season.
  • Leon Avdullahu(86% match)A Metronome. Statistically, he stands out as active in the tackle (2.0 tackles/90), reads the game exceptionally (1.5 interceptions/90), meticulous in distribution (88% pass accuracy), heavily involved in possession (66 passes/90), wins the ball cleanly (1.9 successful tackles/90), central to possession (77 touches/90), uses long balls frequently (5.4/90) and a high-intensity presser (press score 3.5/90), constantly disrupting opposition build-up. Note: this profile is based on 529 minutes of playing time this season.
  • Enis Bardhi(84% match)Bardhi is a dead-ball specialist masquerading as a central cog, a player who operates with the surgical precision of a playmaker but carries the shot volume of a secondary striker. While his 33.7 passes per match suggest a modest involvement in build-up, his output is pure efficiency; he ranks in the top 5% of Super Lig midfielders for key passes and the top 10% for goals. This discrepancy reveals the counterintuitive reality of his game: Bardhi isn't a high-volume engine, but a high-leverage executioner who waits for the decisive moment to strike or slide a ball into the final third.
