1) Niguez is very much a Tuchel player
The Spaniard has bags of ability on the ball, but it is his athleticism and energy that has won him many admirers over the years. He has been a perfect fit for Diego Simeone’s style of play at Atletico.
Thomas Tuchel similarly demands a lot from his central midfielders, and Niguez will undoubtedly slot in well alongside the likes of N’Golo Kante and Jorginho.
