Yéremy Pino
A technical, hard-working wide forward — quality delivery, intelligent movement into the inside channels and the energy to press from the front.
Playing Style Summary
Pino is a right-footed attacker who can play on either wing or as one of two inside forwards behind a striker. Developed under Unai Emery at Villarreal, he combines technical quality with a high work rate, pressing and tracking runners as well as creating. His best moments come from crossing and passing from wide areas and from arriving in the inside channels to finish.
Defining Traits
Quality Delivery
Pino's crossing is varied — hanging balls to the back post, quick deliveries to the near post and outside-of-the-foot crosses that bend away from defenders.
Inside-Channel Movement
From a wide starting position he drifts into the half-space to receive between the lines or attack the box from an angle.
Tight-Space Control
Low centre of gravity and quick feet let him protect the ball and turn away from pressure near the corner flag and the edge of the box.
Defensive Work Rate
Shaped by Emery's demanding systems, he presses and tracks back diligently — a reliable defensive contributor for a wide attacker.
Strengths
- Varied, accurate crossing and delivery
- Comfortable on either flank or as an inside forward
- Close control in tight spaces
- Pressing and defensive work rate
- Tactical discipline learned under demanding coaches
Limitations
- Goal output has been modest relative to his chances — he underperformed his expected goals in his first Premier League season
- Not a pure pace merchant — less effective attacking space in behind
- Injuries have interrupted his progress, including a broken collarbone suffered with Spain in June 2026

“A touchline-hugging left winger who turns one-v-one duels into a team weapon — explosive acceleration, direct running and a growing habit of decisive final-third actions on the biggest stages.”
Víctor Muñoz
“A quick, direct left-sided forward who progresses the ball by running with it — the Real Madrid academy product who broke through at Osasuna and became Andoni Iraola's first signing at Liverpool.”
Ferran Torres
“A converted winger turned penalty-box forward — intelligent movement, first-time finishing and the versatility to play anywhere across a front three. Scorer of Spain's World Cup-winning goal.”
Mikel Oyarzabal
“A thinking forward who plays as a nine but moves like a playmaker — dropping to connect, pressing with intelligence and arriving in the box at exactly the right moment.”
Borja Iglesias
“A classic reference striker with a poacher's instincts — he holds the ball up, brings others into play and punishes high defensive lines with well-timed runs.”
Unai Simón
“Spain's tournament goalkeeper — a calm, commanding shot-stopper with a big-game record in shootouts and finals, and the composure to start his team's build-up from deep.”
