Edson Álvarez ist ein mexikanischer defensiver Mittelfeldspieler, der für seine Zeit bei Ajax Amsterdam und West Ham United bekannt ist. Er begann seine Karriere beim Club América und wechselte 2019 nach Europa, wo er sich als zuverlässiger Abräumer etablierte. Mit der mexikanischen Nationalmannschaft nahm er an mehreren Weltmeisterschaften und dem Gold Cup teil.
Álvarez zeichnet sich durch seine physische Präsenz, Zweikampfstärke und taktische Disziplin aus, was ihn zu einem idealen defensiven Mittelfeldspieler macht. Seine Stärken liegen im Abfangen von Bällen und im Spielaufbau aus der Tiefe, während er gelegentlich durch seine Passgenauigkeit und Kopfballstärke in Standardsituationen gefährlich wird. Schwächen zeigt er manchmal in der Schnelligkeit bei schnellen Gegenangriffen.
