Across 35 matches, Penxe demonstrates a reliable workload as a wide runner, consistently eating up ground through the carry and contributing meaningfully with ball in hand over an extended run of games. His tackle numbers are modest on a per-game basis, as expected of a wing operating in a primarily attacking role, though he shows the defensive willingness to get involved when required. His peak outputs — reaching 15 carries and 120 metres in a single game — signal he has the capacity to step up as a primary attacking weapon on his best days.
Born on 3 April 1997, Yaw is 29 years old, stands 183cm (6′0″) tall and weighs 93kg.
