No expert here and its my n=1 answer. I could see it doing the following.
Build base fitness and improve on that with little joint impact, so that’s zone 2 riding covered.
Improve recovery time from over tempo efforts, sprinting, going to improve you ability to recover from those all out efforts in football, so you’re not going to fatigue as fast. that’s top zones covered.
All other zones I guess would be adding to your general fitness.
I’ve no idea what the professionals use it for, would see it more for them for base fitness without adding lots of additional stress to the body.
I can only see it as a positive for your football, and can’t see anything I would avoid in the plans.
