For a centre-back, his pace is one of his most valuable assets. He can recover quickly against through balls and pacey strikers, which is crucial in high defensive lines.

His reactions are solid, allowing him to respond quickly to loose balls and deflections inside the box.

This is where he truly shines. His tackling is clean and well-timed, and his positioning is intelligent.

Despite not being the tallest CB, his physical presence is respectable. He holds his ground in shoulder-to-shoulder duels and doesn’t get pushed off easily.
