Style of play
[edit]Pesquer plays as a defender and is left-footed. Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo wrote in 2026 that he "is an attacking full-back who is comfortable playing in central positions when the winger is wide. From that position, his crossing ability is particularly noteworthy. He has a good touch to deliver crosses both from set pieces and open play. Technically, he is a complete player".[5]
