This, coupled with the fact that he’s also ranked in the top 10 for interceptions and blocks, underscores that he’s usually in the right place at the right time. “Kim has the qualities of a modern defender, attacks very high and tries to anticipate the ball,” emphasizes Dietl. “If I had to choose just one adjective to describe him, I would say: reliable.”
