Dia operates as a pure number nine, relying on accurate shooting to punish half-chances in and around the box. He's a straightforward finisher rather than a creator, best deployed in a direct attacking system where service flows his way. His movement in the final third is efficient without flourish—positioning over dribbling defines his threat.
