PSG's Senny Mayulu Metrics Analysis: A Final Third Specialist

Understanding his role, output and suitability for Liverpool’s midfield structure

I have spent time reviewing Senny Mayulu’s profile, both through footage and data, and the first thing that stands out is his attacking output. For a nineteen-year-old operating in a high-level environment, his numbers in the final third are strong.

He plays primarily in a wide ten role, from the right and then moves centrally as seen in the image below. That is reflected in both his positional data and his on-ball actions. He operates close to goal, receives the ball in advanced areas, and looks to make something happen quickly. His assist numbers, expected threat contributions, and touches in the box all rank highly. His overall player impact sits in the upper percentiles, which is notable given his age and limited minutes.
