​DESCRIPTION
Didier La Torre is an atypical right wing, with a right foot, very technical but with a slender body (1.81 cm x 75 kg) and a good run. Tactically, La Torre is a versatile and very flexible player, he can play in different positions from the half court up. In fact, in addition to his natural role as right winger, he plays very well the role of playmaker behind the central strikers thanks to his game creativity and his excellent technique, but he also manages to play very easily even as a quality midfielder in the middle of the game. field or as a right winger, playing with inverted foot. Technically, the young Didier is a player with great technique and dribbling, he loves to invent delicious plays for the public and serve assists for his attacking team mates. In addition to this, he is very good at dribbling, often jumping his direct opponent in 1 vs 1 thanks to a good run with the ball. In addition, he is also gifted with an excellent long-range shot, very powerful and accurate, and is also a decent set piece shooter, especially a good penalty taker. Physically, thanks to his height and size, he manages to win several physical and aerial duels with his scorers or direct opponents, also winning hard and dirty tackles. Athletically, La Torre is in possession of a good progression and excellent running thanks also to its long levers that allow it to overturn the game action, thanks to lightning fast counter-attacks. Temperamentally, the young Peruvian playmaker is endowed with great personality and character, making him a real driver for his teammates but always respecting the rules and fairness both towards the opponents and the referee. Therefore, it can be said that Didier La Torre is certainly a talent to follow and to take into consideration both for the present and for the future, also given the excellent still unexpressed potential of La Torre. In conclusion, I would like to recommend the purchase of Didier La Torre, being released and free from any kind of contractual commitment, consequently it becomes an excellent market opportunity for those looking for a player with his characteristics.
