De Jong (2,045) is 'mister pass' in LaLiga: 285 more than Kroos

Frenkie de Jong (12-5-1997) is the great confirmation of Barça 2020-21. The statistics confirm that he is the player with the most correct passes (2,045) in this league, 285 more, for example, than Toni Kroos, who is fourth in the standings. Only Parejo (1,868) and Busquets (1,784) are ahead of the German (1,760). De Jong is also the player with the most passes, in general (2,227), made or not, has given. They are 345 more than the 1,882 of Kroos.

The importance of Frenkie de Jong has grown exponentially since Koeman's arrival. First, the coach decided to advance the position of his compatriot before the end of the year. In the new 4-3-3, he responded with key goals (Granada, Real, Elche, Rayo). When he was having the best time, he has taken half a step back to position himself as a libero, a la Beckenbauer, in Koeman's 3-4-2-1. His answer, humility.

It is certainly not a matter of comparison between De Jong and Kroos. The two are, surely, the best midfielders in the current league with Casemiro's permission. The Dutchman has scored six goals and provided six assists this season. The German only drilled the rival goal on two occasions, but he has already given ten passes on goal, an outrage.
