The latest study by CIES – Observatório do Futebol, highlights the top 10 players under the age of 25 for the most diverse actions/functions on the field (technical profiles). The study covers 59 leagues around the world, but primarily in Europe, and is based on performances over the past 365 days, regardless of whether players have changed clubs in that period.
Now, there are four players working in Portugal on the list, although one has yet to make his debut. We are talking about Joao Victor, a central defender contracted from Corinthians who is still recovering from injury. The defender appears in eighth place in the ‘Pure Mana’ class, led by Eder Militao, former FC Porto who wears the colors of Real Madrid.

In the file “Defensive Shooters” Enzo Fernandez, in second place, appears only in front of Federico Valverde, of Real Madrid.
Pedro Gonçalves, of Sporting, is the 10th and final in the ‘shooter’, with Joao Felix (Atl. Madrid) in fifth and Bucayo Saka (Arsenal) up front.
Finally, in the ‘target man shooter’ is Evanilson, from FC Porto, also in 10th place. Darwin Nunez, who replaced Benfica with Liverpool in their last off-season, is fifth with Kai Havertz of Chelsea in pole position.
And as far as the ‘man-nominated playmaker’ is concerned, the number one spot is Vitenha, who this summer switched from FC Porto to Paris Saint-Germain. Also at the top, but in the category of “offside shooter” is Raphael Liao (AC Milan), ahead of Kylian Mbappe (Paris Saint-Germain).
In the “defensive offside”, Diogo Dalot (Man. United) is second, behind Alfonso Davies (Bayern), but the list also includes former Sporting Matthews Nunes (sixth), now at Wolverhampton, and winger Nuno Mendes (10th), from Paris Saint-Germain. Germain.
