Style of play

Boutrah mainly operates as an attacking midfielder. Speaking to French newspaper Ouest-France manager Zeljko Corlija described him as "a player with very good speed and change of pace, he has all the qualities of a modern footballer. We had him play in a 3-5-2 system, but he prefers a system with 4 defenders to play as a winger, or behind the striker as a playmaker. There, he can drop back to bring up the balls. He likes to have a little freedom".
