Current / Potential level:
A- / A
A tall, slender wide attacker with above-average acceleration and top-end pace. Her movement is fluid and she is agile, but overall coordination is average; she would benefit from core strengthening and stability work, as she is not always steady or successful in contact and in aerial duels despite her physical profile.
Profiles as a flank midfielder/inside winger who can operate on either side and drift into central zones; she prefers the left flank with inside cuts onto her right foot. In attack she looks to receive in the middle or final third to accelerate play either individually or via combinations. She times runs in behind well, exploits space in transition, and uses her burst to arrive onto forward passes. In interplay with teammates she can be subtle and creative.
On the ball she shows above-average control with a quality first touch. In 1v1s she reads the timing for sharp changes of direction, frequently wrong-footing defenders with tempo shifts; her dribbling is both fast and powerful. However, in counterattacks she can lose tempo at the decision point.
Passing is at an average level: short combinations are stable, while medium and long distribution carries errors.
She demonstrates good vertical, line-splitting passes and sees teammates’ movements and space, but lacks consistency and regularity in execution. In finishing she favors long-range efforts and has a well-set ball strike.
Tactically she is at a medium level: understands positioning principles and how to block passing lanes, but is not always active in the press. In set defensive phases she acts with awareness, yet on transition to attack she may slow, losing the momentum of the move. Her overall work volume could be higher, though she is capable of seizing initiative and energizing the game through individual ball progression.
