Nathan Ngoy leads Lille playing time rankings under Davide Ancelotti

Nathan Ngoy has emerged as one of Lille’s most important players this season, topping the club’s appearance and playing-time rankings under head coach Davide Ancelotti.

The Belgian defender has accumulated 1,170 minutes across all competitions, equalling goalkeeper Berke Özer’s total to become the most-used outfield player in the squad.

According to Le Petit Lillois, Ngoy has established himself as an undisputed figure in Lille’s defence, featuring consistently in both Ligue 1 and the Champions League.

Icelandic midfielder Hákon Haraldsson follows closely with 1,107 minutes, while Brazilian defender Alexsandro completes the top four with 1,080 minutes.

Nabil Bentaleb has accumulated 957 minutes, ahead of Ngal’ayel Mukau (917), Romain Perraud (880) and Benjamin André (873).

Among Lille’s summer arrivals, Dilane Bakwa leads the way with 649 minutes, followed by Ethan Mbappé on 623 minutes.

Bakwa has quickly become an important attacking option after joining on loan from Strasbourg.

Meanwhile, Tanguy Nianzou has recorded 453 minutes, while Ayase Ueda has managed 382.

Lille currently occupy second place in Ligue 1, although their Champions League campaign has been more challenging.
