​DESCRIPTION
​Normotype of medium height, with a slender structure in the upper part of the body, but robust in the lower limbs, good definition and muscular, toned and trophic harmony in the lower part.
Equipped with excellent explosive strength and great flexibility, both in the lower part and in the back.
Very skilled technically, excellent oriented control and ball conduction with opponents in contact, using both the outside of the foot and the sole very well. Equipped with a great fine dexterity.
Norambuene is used as a left back attacker (WING) in form 4-2-3-1.
He prefers to play wide and move without the ball behind the defensive line and, thanks to a good speed and rapidity, usually points the back of the field to get to the cross, often precise and insidious for the opposing defenses.
Physically he has still to work, especially in the upper part of the body, but despite this it holds up well the challenges and is also very useful in defense in high balls, it is in fact equipped with excellent elevation and dynamic balance.
The player has a great rhythm, his running is fluid, high frequency of the supports, short amplitude of the stride.
He stands out in the ball and chain insertions, especially in the range of his competence, where he often frees himself thanks to external overlaps.
When the action develops from the opposite side he is good at cutting in towards the center and being free, as shown by the two goals scored among the professionals so far.
Tactically he is mature, in the non-possession phase he often stands out for his willingness to sacrifice to help his teammates and to cover the whole range up to his own penalty area.
The player has ample room for improvement, especially as regards shooting.
In the future he could also be used as a right winger who cuts towards the center to free himself from the shot. Regarding the emotional aspect the boy, despite his young age, has nothing to envy to his teammates, when he is called into question he always enters with the right intensity and the right competitive spirit, he is not afraid to get the ball even at cost. to make a mistake, even in the final minutes of the game. Although he is only in his first season among the professionals, the coach often calls him into question, often even among the owners.

If he continues with this mentality, humble and willing, he will certainly take away a lot of satisfaction and being called into question by the Chilean national team will only be a matter of time.
