It appears Jordan Lotomba was signed to provide cover for both the left and right back positions. He turns 28 on September 29th and has played 19,367 minutes of senior club football according to Wyscout’s database. For comparison, Kieren Tierney is about 15 months older and has 29,093. Given the latter’s prolonged periods of missed games due to injury, Lotomba’s usage has not been heavy.
He played roughly 6.5k minutes at Young Boys in Switzerland prior to his move to Nice, where he played roughly 9.4k minutes in France. Since departing Nice for Feyenoord, he’s not played a lot, with various injury issues contributing to about 2.7k minutes in the Netherlands over the past two years.
His last two clubs played primary setups of 4-3-3/4-2-3-1 variants.
Nice were 5th during the 2023-2024 Ligue 1 season in both points and xPts per Wyscout’s model. Lotomba was not particularly attacking, with his teammate and primary left back that season shown for comparison.
