Jay Idzes and Manuel Akanji are the reference points at the heart of Sassuolo’s and Inter’s defences. Idzes stands out for volume and intensity: 22 appearances, 157 recoveries, 115 interceptions and a strong presence in aerial duels, with 47 won. Akanji answers with efficiency and defensive cleanliness, maintaining a high duel success rate (65%) and providing solidity through sharp reading of the game and perfectly timed interventions. Two silent leaders, two different ways of protecting the goal: when the match gets tough, the balance shifts to the back line | Serie A 2025/26 #SerieA This is the official channel for the Serie A, providing all the latest highlights, interviews, news and features to keep you up to date with all things Italian football.
