Position: Midfielder
Description of his Game: Paulinho is strong and powerful when running - possessing the ability to push his side forward from midfield to supplement his fine defensive work. Paulinho also offers a useful presence in set piece situations at both ends of the pitch. On paper he is a defensive midfielder just like Ramires, with whom he forms the holding partnership for Brazil’s national team. But he is also a scorer, to the extent that he ended up as Corinthians' top scorer in the 2012 Brazilian league.
