Danilo

Danilo's emergence as a linchpin in Nottingham Forest's midfield is underpinned by his adeptness at regaining possession and his impressive ability to drive the ball forward. At just 24, his style of play is marked by an assertive approach to ball recovery, often breaking up opposition attacks with remarkable consistency. His progressive carrying and passing stats reflect a player comfortable in transitioning the ball effectively, although his creativity and goal threat remain understated, with chance creation not yet a standout feature of his game. Defensively, while he's solid in one-on-one situations, there's room for improvement in his penalty area defending. Nevertheless, Danilo's blend of defensive tenacity and forward-thinking ball progression makes him a vital cog in Forest's setup, and a player to watch in the Premier League scout reports.
