Davide Buglio is a workmanlike central midfielder whose game is built on durability and reliability rather than standout flair. While his Sofascore rating positions him in the bottom third among his peers, he offers consistent presence with limited missed games over three seasons. However, his lower metrics in tackles, interceptions, and duels won indicate that he may struggle to impact defensively, making him more of a supporting player than a game-changer in the midfield battle.
Availability: 8 games missed in the last 3 seasons.
