Kolo Muani is a technically sound forward who is known for his pace, dribbling and positioning.

Sebastian Nanasi (Strasbourg)

The Swedish midfielder has hit the ground running at Strasbourg. He has turned out to be a great signing for the Blue and Whites. His consistency, playmaking and scoring instincts make him an important player for his side.
