Football ⚽ is one of the most versatile sports game. Various roles, tactics, formations and etc. makes football field a place where both classical and modern approaches can help to achieve victory.

But how good do you know football roles? In this post we wil tell you about who is trequartista, and will remember the famous players on this position 🏃.

Trequartista (or three quarters in Italian 🇮🇹) defines the work area of the player. Usually working high up the field, the final third remains to be the area of focus. A Trequartista drops into the space between the opposition’s defence 🥅 and the midfield. Given the excellent on-the-ball ability of a typical trequartista, he dazzles past players and weaves magical defence-splitting passes.

While his role seems similar to that of an attacking midfielder, a trequartista has zero contribution in defence. A trequartista only attacks. A 4–3–1–2 is the classic formation for the implementation of this role where the player in the hole is the trequartista. The classic examples of this role are Diego Maradona 🇦🇷, Juan Riquelme 🇦🇷 and Zinedine Zidane 🇫🇷.

The trequatistas are a rare sight in modern football because of the increase in all-round defensive responsibilities and the tactical evolution of the game.
