Dušan Tadić

Dušan Tadić

Dušan Tadić attacks space from the left wing, checks short then spins in behind, and pins centre-backs with well-timed runs. Dušan Tadić thrives on tempo control, delivering precise passes and switching play to create chances for teammates. He thrives in tight spaces. He broke through at Southampton, then thrived at Ajax, winning the Eredivisie title in 2018/19. A turning point came when Ajax used him as a false nine, dropping deep to link play and create space for others. Dušan Tadić is a forward who presses high and looks to get shots off quickly, while linking play with one-touch layoffs. Dušan Tadić is Serbia's all-time most-capped player and has represented his nation at the World Cup. On the ball, Tadić punishes disjointed lines with precise through passes.
