Known for his dribbling, speed and finishing, he is regarded as one of the best wingers in the world.

In his third season at the club, he helped the team win the 2021–22 Serie A, which ended the club's 11-year league title drought. He was also voted Serie A Most Valuable Player and was listed among the 30-man shortlist for the Ballon d'Or.
