Position: Winger/Forward - In Lanus has been playing mostly as a free forward on a 4-4-2. Many times, thought he’s also used as a right winger. Both positions are very similar because his movements as a forward happen mostly on the right flank. The important thing is that he plays with freedom to stay wide and show up in finishing situations.

Potential (0-10): 10 - Is a clear case of enormous potential. He’s not a mature player and has to improve on many aspects to get to the top, but his age and talent indicate that he can become a real star in the future.

Physical description: 169 cm. Small player but with good balance and capacity to face more physical challenges. It’s a quick player, with good acceleration and can change direction easily. These attributes are important for his 1x1 situations.

Technical description: Right footer, he can also play with his left foot but needs to get more habit to use that solution, specially when playing on the wings. He’s a naturally strong player on 1x1 situations, being very explosive, combining his physical qualities with his technical ones. Good control and dribbling. Also a good finisher in the box, here feeling more comfortable to use his left foot.

Tactical description: His movements vary from playing wide and trying 1x1 situations or coming in to finishing positions. One of his positive aspects is that at such young age he can play both wide and inside as a forward. Has to improve on his decisions and on his capacity to combine more with teammates and to be less focused on individual solutions. His working attitude is very good, being an aggressive player in defensive moments of the game.
