He is very important for Monchengladbach’s first phase of the buildup. He and his midfield partner as well as the centre-backs are responsible for the ball circulation. Weigl can easily find spaces to exploit with his passing ability as well. On an average, he has an 89% passing accuracy per game, and a 65% success rate in winning ground duels.
Harry Kane (Bayern Munich)
His unique ability lies in translating his exceptional passing precision into clinical goalscoring, consistently positioning himself in the most suitable areas to convert chances. Kane embodies the physical requirements of an elite poacher. His positional acumen, tactical awareness and finishing ability within tight spaces are globally acclaimed.
A noteworthy strength of Kane lies in his adeptness at exploiting spaces at the back post. The Englishman’s prowess in distribution, orchestrating lofted passes, and maintaining composure under pressure amplifies Bayern’s offensive capabilities. In 13 league games, he has scored 14 and provided five assists. On the continental level, he has scored five in five fixtures.
