Our TFA Talent of the day is Martin Tavara of Sporting Cristal – a 24 y/o defensive midfielder who we think has the potential to make an immediate big impact for Tier 2 teams. Our xGOLD tool shows him as being similar to Joshua Kimmich of Bayern Munich.

Who is Martin Tavara?

“Martín Távara is a 24-year-old midfielder who has excellent technical abilities and also possesses a very good passing range that allow him to effectively distribute the ball from deeper areas. He also has a strong sense of positioning in the defensive phases and helps out his backline with timely interceptions. He has good defensive awareness to track runners and can shield the spaces in front of his backline.

Távara is a player with good quality on the ball and has the potential to play at a higher level in the future, preferably in the South American leagues in Tier 2.”
