Alexander Djiku among top three defenders with successful tackle rate in Europe

French born Ghanaian guardsman Alexander Djiku has emerged the third best defender with the highest successful tackle rates in Europe. 

The Strasbourg defender has a tackle success rate of 85.2%, according to reputable football statistics outlet whoscored.com.

The 24-year old is just behind Gabriel of Lille (85.4%) and Lazio's Francesco Acerbi (90.8%) asthe top three defenders in Europe.

Djiku was outstanding for Strasbourg last season, playing 25 times and netting once as Racing Club placed tenth before the French Ligue 1 was prematurely ended due to COVID-19.

Born in Montpellier to Ghanaian parents, the strong defender is yet to make an international appearance for France, leaving with an option of representing Ghana.
