The shape of him

Denis Zakaria is a 29-year-old defender at Monaco and a Switzerland international. In 26/27 that meant 15 club appearances and 1,105 minutes. Defending is anticipation as much as tackling: reading the pass before it is played, holding the line, and starting the attack from the back.

The job

Win the individual duels, protect the space behind, and give the team a platform to build from.
