Don't take this as a direct comparison because it's not, but in terms of Loftus-Cheek's style and body shape watching him play is reminiscent of watching Zidane play. Tall player, fairly strong for someone so skillful, great footwork, keeps the ball close to him and doesn't rely on his pace to catch up with it. Probably a lot more accurate to say he could be the next Yoann Gourcuff than Zinedine Zidane
