Alessandro Bastoni

A commanding presence at the back, he reads the game with exceptional timing and calmness. He's excellent at defensive screening, tracking runners, and blocking shots, often stepping in with perfectly timed challenges. His aerial game is strong, both in jumping and heading, and he plays with real aggression. He's a key part of Inter's build-up, distributing with range and carrying the ball forward. While generally composed, he can sometimes struggle with the tempo of play, and his technical execution under extreme pressure isn't always perfect. Inter reportedly sees his departure as likely, with Barcelona actively pursuing him and Bastoni himself rumored to be keen on the move. He was also sent off recently.
