Key strength: Work rate
Box-to-box midfielder
At just 23 years old, Belgian midfielder Aster Vranckx is quietly establishing himself at US Sassuolo, currently sitting 11th in the Serie A table. The €7 million-rated box-to-box talent has featured in 3 appearances this season, accumulating 270 minutes of valuable top-flight experience. While yet to register goals or assists, Vranckx brings tireless work rate to a Sassuolo midfield that includes established performers like Ismaël Koné and Kristian Thorstvedt. Competing alongside talented attackers Armand Laurienté and Andrea Pinamonti, the Belgian offers energy and defensive coverage as he looks to cement a regular starting role. With plenty of development ahead and a respectable market valuation for his age, Vranckx represents a smart long-term investment for the Neroverdi as they aim to climb from mid-table obscurity.
