Players to Watch

Osame Sahraoui (Lille)

He has become an accomplished attacking midfielder in all areas, both centrally and out wide. His right foot is his strongest, but he also has a more than serviceable left foot which has definitely improved over the years. Sahraoui’s biggest strength and skill is dribbling.

His exceptional agility, balance and flair make him the ideal candidate for dribbling. Osams’s decision-making in front of the goal still needs to be improved but overall he is a lethal player on the field.

Manuel Locatelli (Juventus)

The Italian is comfortable at both ends of the pitch but mainly deploys himself as a deep-lying playmaker. After receiving the ball, he will always scan across the field and determine the best option for the team. Showcasing his maturity on numerous occasions and ensuring possession is not given away cheaply.

Comfortable with both feet, his playmaking abilities make him comfortable in possession in the attacking third of the pitch. His long-range passes into the final third as well as progressive passes is what makes him stand out among the rest.
