Riechedly Bazoer

Riechedly Bazoer is a cautionary tale of unfulfilled promise who has reinvented himself as a centre-back after beginning his career as one of Ajax's most exciting midfield prospects. He earned senior Netherlands caps and moved to VfL Wolfsburg and FC Porto, but injuries and inconsistency derailed his trajectory. Spells at Vitesse and AZ Alkmaar saw him settle into defensive roles, and he now plays in the Turkish Süper Lig with Konyaspor. His reading of the game, a remnant of his midfield origins, remains his most distinctive quality.
