About Malcom Bokele
Malcom Bokele is a versatile defender, capable of playing both centre-back and left-back, but his current form places him in the bottom tier of his positional peers. Despite his durability, missing only four games in the last three seasons, he struggles to make a significant impact defensively, with low metrics in tackles and interceptions. While he contributes with occasional goals, his overall quality suggests he has room for improvement to become a more influential presence on the pitch.
Availability: 4 games missed in the last 3 seasons.
