A left-sided defender who has spent his career as a squad player at mid-table clubs, Haïdara is a functional fullback with decent recovery pace and the physical tools to handle direct opponents. However, his technical range is limited—he'll rarely progress the ball with any creativity or confidence—and his decision-making when pressed in tight spaces leans toward the panicked. At 33, he's a depth piece, useful for rotation but not someone you'd trust in a defining match.
