Final Verdict

Matić is a traditional defensive midfielder, big, physical, and composed in deeper roles. He’s best used in formations where he’s shielded by faster players or deployed in stay-back tactics. While strong in duels and calm in possession, his low work rate, and poor offensive output limit his influence in fast-paced or high-press matches.
