Paolo Gozzi is a versatile defender who can operate as both a centre-back and left-back, though his current form places him in the lower echelons of his positional peers. With a Sofascore rating in the bottom 28%, he struggles to make a significant impact defensively, as evidenced by his low tackle and interception metrics. Additionally, his injury history raises concerns about reliability, having missed 23 games over the past three seasons. Gozzi will need to elevate his performance to establish himself as a dependable option in defense.
Availability: 23 games missed in the last 3 seasons.
