The Israel International is naturally a defensive midfielder and often fills in centre-backs, and the sports praises Bitton Bitton’s “read of the game” and “having a calm crime” Kieran Devlin, who Joe Sullivan labels him.

So, can tıknaz be similar?

Meanwhile, Tıknaz himself said in an interview with Sarah Shephard of track and field, his game style is similar to that of Sergio Busquets, and said: “I always want to own property…I am an organizer…I can play Box-to-to-box box too”.

Well, according to the goal’s Aryan Suraj Chadha, the young man in Turkey is one of Europe’s most popular talents, so let’s evaluate his statistics in Primeira Liga this season.
