Player profile

527 min · vs 149 wingers · 3 Nov 2026 · Method

Archetype: Defensive wide forward

Pierotti works for Lecce like a wing-back: he recovers the ball more than any winger, tackles well and wins headers. In attack he offers almost nothing, with very few shots, touches in the box or key passes, and he loses most of his duels. From 527 minutes.
