Ibrahim MazaCreative No. 10 with shot threat
Across 1,852 published minutes for Bayer 04 Leverkusen in the Bundesliga during 2025/26, the evidence currently points to Ibrahim Maza as a creative No. 10 with shot threat. Shot volume at 2.62 per 90 (90th percentile) stands out as a role marker; big-chance creation at 0.44 per 90 (89th percentile) and successful take-on volume at 2.33 per 90 (93rd percentile) back it up. The final-third numbers earn attention; the next question is how he finds influence when central access is denied and what he gives the side without the ball.
