Kamal Sowah is a versatile central midfielder who can also operate as a striker, yet his current performance metrics suggest he's struggling to impact games at a high level, reflected in his Sofascore rating, placing him in the bottom 13% of his positional peers. While he showcases durability with no missed games over the past three seasons, his lack of standout strengths and challenges in aerial duels limit his effectiveness. A fresh perspective may be needed for Sowah to unlock his potential in a more defined role.
Availability: no injuries recorded in the last 3 seasons.
