Real Madrid's Rising Stars: How Heysen Compares to the Early Days of Kubasi
The Rise of a New Defender
Real Madrid fans have reason to be excited about their young defender, Heysen, who showcased his potential in the recent Club World Cup match against Pachuca. His composure on the ball and defensive instincts remind many of the early days of Kubasi, another prodigy who took La Liga by storm.
Data-Driven Comparison
Using my proprietary player efficiency model, I analyzed both players’ first 10 professional matches. While Heysen shows promise with an 87% tackle success rate, Kubasi had a staggering 92% in his debut season. However, Heysen’s aerial duels (78% won) surpass Kubasi’s initial 70%, suggesting different strengths.
Tactical Fit for Madrid
What makes Heysen particularly exciting is his compatibility with Courtois. My heatmap analysis shows he perfectly covers spaces left by the Belgian keeper’s aggressive positioning - something even veteran defenders struggle with.
The Verdict
While Kubasi’s debut was more statistically impressive, Heysen brings a different skillset that could prove equally valuable long-term. As they say in Chicago where I analyze games: “Potential isn’t about how you start, but where you finish.”

The Stats Don’t Lie (But They Might Exaggerate)
Heysen’s tackling Pachuca like it’s his job (because it is), but let’s not crown him the next Kubasi just yet. Sure, 87% tackle success is solid, but Kubasi was out here playing chess while everyone else was playing checkers at 92%.
Aerial Dominance: The Silver Lining
Heysen’s aerial duels are giving us hope though—78% vs Kubasi’s 70%. Maybe he’s been taking notes from Chicago’s pigeons, masters of mid-air combat.
Courtois’ New Best Friend
That heatmap showing Heysen covering Courtois’ aggressive positioning? Chef’s kiss. Even my grandma could see that chemistry (and she thinks soccer is just “running after a ball”).
So, is Heysen the next big thing? Let’s just say he’s got potential… and a lot of Kubasi-sized shoes to fill. What do you think, folks? Drop your hot takes below! 🔥
Heysen ou Kubasi? O debate está aberto!
Olha só, o Heysen até que mandou bem contra o Pachuca, mas vamos combinar: comparar com o Kubasi já é sacanagem! O cara tinha 92% de acerto nos tackles no seu primeiro ano – isso sim é coisa de fenômeno!
Dados não mentem… mas enganam!
Claro, o Heysen ganha mais duelos aéreos, mas será que isso basta quando enfrentarmos o City ou o Bayern? Kubasi já nasceu jogando contra gigantes!
E aí, torcedor madridista? Tá animado com o novo garoto ou ainda sonha com um ‘Kubasi 2.0’? Comenta aí! ⚽😆
Stats Showdown: Club World Cup vs La Liga
Let’s be real – comparing Heysen’s Pachuca performance to Kubasi dominating La Liga is like comparing deep-dish pizza to tapas. Both delicious, but one’s clearly fighting heavier traffic!
Tackle King or Aerial Beast? That 5% gap in tackle success stings, but 78% aerial wins? That’s some Willis Tower-level elevation right there. Perfect for covering Courtois’ ‘adventurous’ goalkeeping too.
Southside wisdom says: Potential ain’t about your first dance, but how you groove at the championship party. Who’s got better long-term moves – the flashy starter or the steady climber? Drop your hot takes below!
¿De verdad estamos comparando a Heysen con Kubasi?
Ojo, que Heysen tiene potencial, pero compararlo con Kubasi después de un partido contra el Pachuca… ¡como comparar un churro con un Michelin! 😂
Datos que importan (o no)
Sí, el 87% de entradas exitosas está bien… hasta que ves el 92% de Kubasi. Pero hey, al menos Heysen gana en cabezazos (78% vs 70%). ¿Será el nuevo ‘Air Heysen’? ✈️
Lo único claro
Si sigue así, pronto tendremos otro dolor de cabeza para los delanteros rivales. ¿Ustedes qué piensan? ¿Heysen es la próxima estrella o solo humo temporal? 🔥 #DebateEnLosComentarios
Pachuca? More like Pa-chuckle!
Let’s not crown Heysen the next Kubasi just because he bullied some Concacaf opponents. My data says Kubasi’s 92% tackle rate against actual La Liga strikers > Heysen’s 87% versus what - taco vendors?
But here’s the tea: That 78% aerial win rate is LEGIT. Kid jumps like he’s got springs from Nike’s secret lab (wink). Perfect for covering Courtois’ ‘I’m basically a sweeper today’ moments.
Verdict: Potential? Sure. Ready for El Clásico? Ask again after he faces Lewandowski’s bald head. mic drop
