Among the five biggest European leagues, it is in Ligue 1 that the players attempt the most dribbling.
In the 320th weekly letter from CIES, published this Monday, we learn that Ligue 1 is the championship – among the five largest on the continent – where the frequency of dribbling attempted by players is the highest.
On the lawns of L1, a dribble is thus undertaken every 2’33 ″ minutes, against every 2’9 ″ minutes in La Liga for example. A ranking dominated by Paris Saint-Germain and its stars, with an attempted dribble every 3’58 ″.

On the other hand, the highest percentage of success goes to the German formation of Wolfsburg (70.6%). In France, Brest dominates this little game with 64% efficiency.
