Detail Review

Pace

Kimmich’s pace is surprisingly solid for a midfielder. His acceleration helps him close down opponents quickly, and while he’s not explosive, he moves efficiently enough to cover space and recover the ball. ((8.8/10))

Passing

One of his standout strengths. Kimmich’s passing is elite, short, long, switches, through balls, everything is crisp and perfectly weighted. He controls tempo and progresses play like a true midfield general. ((9.7/10))

Dribbling

Very smooth and composed in tight spaces. His close control and quick touches let him escape pressure and move the ball forward without losing possession. ((9.3/10))

Defending

Despite not being the most physical, his defensive IQ is superb. He times tackles well, intercepts smartly, and positions himself perfectly. His work rate enhances his defensive presence even more. ((9.6/10))

Physical

−

This is his weakest area. Kimmich lacks real strength and can get bullied by stronger midfielders. In shoulder-to-shoulder duels, he often comes off second best. ((7.3/10))

Work Rates

+ (M/H)

Excellent for a CDM/CM role. High defensive work rate keeps him active and reliable, while the medium attacking work rate ensures he doesn’t push too far forward unnecessarily. ((10/10))

Skill Moves

Kimmich’s skill moves are limited, which reduces his creativity in tight attacking situations. He relies more on intelligence than flair. ((7.8/10))

Overall Rating: 8.9/10

Final Verdict

Kimmich is a highly intelligent, reliable midfielder with elite passing, strong defending, and smooth dribbling. His lack of physical strength and limited skill moves hold him back slightly, but his work rate and playmaking ability make him a top-tier option for controlling any midfield.
