Bianchi's output is defined almost entirely by his work off the ball — averaging over ten tackles per match across his appearances for Zebre points to a player who consistently carries a heavy defensive load. His carrying numbers are modest, suggesting his role is built around containment and support rather than ball-in-hand threat. A peak of 26 tackles in a single match underlines his capacity to step up when the defensive pressure intensifies.
