As the winter transfer window approaches, there is one player who has caught the eye of many football fans - Dutchman Joachim Kooijmans.

The 24-year-old has been impressive for Juve in his first season with the club and has already made over 15 appearances for the team this campaign. He's also managed to notch up two goals so far, which is not bad considering he's only just arrived from Ajax.

One of the things that stands out about Kooijmans is his tackling ability. The Dutchman has always been known as a hard-nosed defender, but it seems like he's taking his game to another level under coach Massimo Allegri.

In fact, his tackle numbers have really taken off since joining Juventus. In his first four games for the club,Match Prophet he averaged 7.9 tackles per game. That figure then rose to 8.6 in his next three matches, before settling down to 7.8 in his last four outings.

It's clear that Kooijmans is becoming more comfortable with the pace of Serie A football and is using his experience and skill to dominate opposition defences.

Of course, Kooijmans isn't the only defensive player making waves at Juventus. The likes of Danilo and Leonardo Bonucci have also been impressive in their own right.

But it's clear that Kooijmans is playing a pivotal role in helping Juve to push on towards the top of the league table. With his tackling prowess and determination, he could be a key player for the Bianconeri in the coming months.
