Nicolás Acevedo is part of the new generation of Uruguayan center midfielders that are skillful and not just big guy that steal balls like Gargano or Arevalo Ríos. He is more like Vecino or Valverde, the starting center midfielder of the Uruguayan National Team.
Nícolas is number 6 with an awesome technique to pass long balls and has the vision to identify the run behind the defenders from his teammates. He can recover and intercept balls anticipating the movements of the opponent with good timing.
He is a good fit for a team that plays direct, with vertical passes. He can be the organizer in the midfield.
