Mathias Honsak is a tenacious left winger with a strong defensive mindset, excelling in clearances and tackles, making him a valuable asset in transition. Despite a Sofascore rating placing him in the bottom 18% of his peers, his work rate and aerial prowess stand out, offering a gritty presence on the pitch. However, his finishing and final-third accuracy leave room for improvement, and his injury history raises concerns about reliability. Still, when fit, he brings a robust defensive contribution to the attacking midfield role.
Strengths: Clearances, Tackles + interceptions, Aerial duels won. Availability: 23 games missed in the last 3 seasons.
