C. Hountondji

C. Hountondji, the seasoned centre back for Angers SCO, brings a seasoned calmness to the heart of their defence. At 31, he’s a player whose experience shines through, particularly when defending his penalty area. His style of play is defined by his remarkable ability to read the game, allowing him to be consistently in the right place to thwart opposition attacks. The scout report highlights his prowess in recovery, where he's adept at reclaiming possession and neutralising threats. However, while his defensive duels are commendable, his progressive passing and carrying leave room for improvement, suggesting he’s more comfortable shutting down attacks than initiating them. Although not known for his attacking contributions, his defensive stats underline his primary role as a stalwart at the back, offering a reliable last line of defence for Angers.
