Defender · Genk · Jupiler Pro League
“A midfield engine with a full-back’s instincts and urgency.”
GoalPost verdict
GoalPost score (GPS)
GoalPost read
Y. Medina holds useful value as an emerging full back whose strongest recent spell came at Independiente del Valle, yet clubs discount him for the level he has faced and for not being a guaranteed starter. He is still building toward his peak years.

Analysis overview
Y. Medina plays like a midfielder who is always scanning for the next defensive duty, shifting early and covering ground with purpose. The fullBack read fits his game: he tucks in, supports the channel, and keeps moves alive with simple, reliable actions rather than forcing the issue. He looks most at home when the game is stretched and he can glue phases together from deeper areas.
