Standing at 1.82 meters, Nath possesses a good aerial presence, which is a crucial attribute for a winger. His height gives him an advantage during set-pieces and aerial duels.

Nath is right-footed, which allows him to cut inside from the left wing and take shots on goal, a trait seen in many successful wingers in modern football. This also enables him to deliver accurate crosses into the box from the right wing.

His time in Spain has honed his technical skills. The Spanish footballing philosophy emphasizes technical prowess, close control, and quick passing, all of which are evident in Nath’s style of play. His highlights from his time at the Tecnifutbol International Academy and his performances in the Spanish Tercera Division showcase his technical abilities

Kabir Nath’s playing style is a blend of physical prowess, technical skills, and tactical versatility. His journey in European football will be exciting to follow as he continues to grow and make his mark, and lets hope this is the start!
