We’ve used the Twenty3 Sport Discovery Tool to find the best players in each position. For the top five attacking midfielders, the Discovery Tool rates a player’s per 90 output for a number of key stats to produce a percentage score. We have also weighted each stat from 1-5 to highlight the most important aspects of a striker’s play style. This is the Squawka Score.<\/p>\n

Each player’s stats are compared to the average output of attacking midfielders across the past three seasons of big-five European league football based on an automatically calculated minutes threshold. The more they rank in the 95th percentile and above for each metric, the higher the Squawka Score.<\/p>\n

With 2024\/25 well underway, here are the best attacking midfielders in the Premier League ranked by their Squawka Score from the season so far.<\/p>\n

To be clear, we are only looking at attacking midfielders in this article, you can find the best central midfielders in the Premier League right now here.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
