His height (1.80 m) and corpulence do not detract from his speed, in addition to being quite orderly in covering spaces and safe with the ball at his feet.<\/p>  <p>As a substitute for Gavi, Kobbie clearly has the conditions to emulate the physical display of the &#8216;6&#8217; on the field, although <strong>the Andalusian has more confidence when stepping into the rival area<\/strong>.
