Ryan Yates, at a solid age of 25, positions himself as a quite defensive asset for Nottingham Forest. His talent shines when it comes to one-on-one defending and his penalty area defending prowess, both attributing to his outstanding duel win percent. He fetches the ball from the opponent half decently and presents a reasonable goal threat too. However, when it comes to the offensive part of the game, Yates seems to struggle, mainly in chance creation and ball retention. His progressive carrying and passing are areas he might want to improve at, being at a deficient percentile. Quite low in pass accuracy and rarely assisting, he's however direct in attack with a slightly higher xG and shot percentile given his low touch percentile. Despite winning a good percent of aerial duels, Yates' overall possession-based game style needs enhancement, aligning with his lower percentile scores in being dispossessed and touches.
