Murillo Scout Report

In this scout report, our focus is on the Brazilian youngster, Murillo, a centre-back for Nottingham Forest. Murillo's style of play proves the adage true: defense is the best offense. His ball recovery skill is quite impressive, with a performance in the top quartile of Premier League center backs. Progressive carrying and passing are also well above average - key skills for a modern center back to initiate the attack from defense. It's extremely rare for a defensive player to have such high chance creation and assists per 90 stats. Clearly, Murillo is not your average center back. However, there are areas for refinement, as expected of a 21-years-old player. Though aggressive, Murillo's over-commitment leads to numerous fouls, sitting uncomfortably high at the top end of the league. His aerial duels are a liability, and with a meager win rate, it's a significant weakness within his performance. His overall duel rate isn't that much better, posing a potential issue in a man-to-man situation. Of concern also is his unremarkable ball retention as revealed by his rather poor pass accuracy; a grave sin for a center-back, who often initiates plays from the back. In his possession game, Murillo predominantly operates within the defensive third, with some ventures into the midfield. There's a slight hint of his team's direct style of play, as evidenced by his top percentile presence in creating offensive chances despite low activity in the attacking third. A talent to watch, Murillo showcases a unique blend of attributes. He might be a few shades short of a finished product right now, but could be quite the gem once polished.
