Isak Hien is a commanding centre-back who has developed into one of Sweden's most important defenders since joining Atalanta in 2022. Under Gian Piero Gasperini, he has been schooled in one of Europe's most tactically demanding systems — aggressive pressing, high defensive lines, and constant positional discipline — and has risen to become a regular starter for a club that won the Europa League in 2024. Strong in the air, quick to recover, and composed in possession, Hien is arguably Sweden's best outfield defender heading into the 2026 World Cup and the anchor around whom their defensive structure is built.
