Best to post a sample image. It could be subject movement, DOF too shallow, miss focus or a number of other things.

here if you zoom on his face you wil see that is soft focused.

Thank you for the sample, it is very helpful. Is this a JPEG image right out of the camera, or is it a processed RAW?

The focus plane appears to be in the right place, and with sufficient depth of field. If we look at your subject's right side, around mid thigh on their coat, there is a loose thread. Looking at that thread, there are no telltale signs of motion blur. My first impression is that we are just seeing the effects of aggressive noise reduction.

Yes it is a JPEG straight out of camera.

That actually a very good point...because the subject is so small in frame it might be that noise reduction processing is messing up the pixels.
