Each attribute, out of 99: how he compares with the 394 outfield players in Serie A with ten full games or more, over 2026, marked down when he's below par among midfielders (so playing up front alone doesn't make a shooter); passing against other midfielders only, since where you play decides how safe your passes are. Rating is Sportmonks’ match rating, averaged. League matches only.
