Strengths

At 6″2′ and just over 14st, he is one of the toughest defenders in the game. His strength shows in every duel he makes and he’s also good in aerial battles, winning just less than 70% of all high balls.

His tackling is also very good and the player’s strong determination to win the ball often puts his opponents under a lot of pressure. He makes an average of 1.5 tackles, 1.5 interceptions and 3.8 clearances per-game.

Kjaer is also one of the rare central defenders who often gets a chance to test his ability from free-kicks and even scored one of his goals last season via this route.
