Playing style
I. Gueye is a deep midfielder who lives on anticipation, cutting lanes early and putting out fires before they spread. His defensive reading is elite: he stays connected to the shape, steps out at the right moment, and turns loose moments into Senegal recoveries. In possession he keeps the game simple and sharp, but his real value comes when the tempo rises and he can press with veteran timing and bite.
