2020-2021 review: Marten de Roon

The season of the Nerazzurri number 15

No one in the team played more minutes than Marten de Roon in the 2020-2021 season, as he was the Nerazzurri ‘balancer’: 46 games played (he is the third in the squad) in all competitions (35 in Serie A TIM, 6 in the UEFA Champions League, 5 in the Coppa Italia), 1 goal scored and 2 assists provided. He scored the goal that made it 2-4 in the season opener at Torino and he also provided an assist in the home match. He also assisted in the Coppa Italia, as he contributed to the goal the broke the deadlock in the semifinal 2nd leg against Napoli.
The importance of Marten can be seen above all in the invaluable work he carries out in the midfield, which is also underlined by the official statistics of the Lega Serie A about the league: 3,188 minutes played (first in the team ranking), an average of 10.932 km run per game (second in the team ranking), 226 ball recoveries (third in the team ranking), 16 shots made, 4 goalscoring chances created.

It is also worth mentioning that Marten achieved other important personal goals such as the 200th appearance with the Nerazzurri outfit in the 1-0 win away to Cagliari. Then at the end of the season, he was also named in the Netherlands squad to participate in EURO2020.
