Across 16 appearances as a replacement, De Lutiis has built a profile defined primarily by his defensive output, averaging over five tackles per match and reaching 13 in a single game. His carrying is measured rather than prolific, typically contributing three carries and around six metres per outing, suggesting his primary function upon arrival is to stabilise rather than spark. That peak of eight carries and 21 metres in one match indicates he can step up with ball in hand when the moment demands it.
