Tosin Aiyegun is evidently a potent force on the left wing for Lorient in Ligue 1. His main strengths lie in his impressive goal threat, where he ranks in the 76th percentile, as well as his decent goal efficiency, sitting at a solid 60%. These statistics reflect a player who not only gets into dangerous positions but also has the proficiency to convert opportunities. Aiyegun's ball retention is decent too, with a 68% percentile rank, suggesting his ability to keep possession under pressure.
However, despite these strengths, gaps in his game are noticeable. His most glaring weakness is his chance creation which is significantly low at 2%. This low percentile rank signifies a deficiency in providing assists or setting up opportunities for teammates. This weakness is further indicated by his low assists per 90 stat sitting at the 13th percentile, and his disappointing xA per 90 at the 4th percentile.
Adding to that, his overall passing game, both progressive and accuracy-wise, leaves much to be desired, with 20% and 16% respectively. His ball recovery, successful crosses per 90, and successful dribbles per 90 are also highlighted as areas of concern, ranking in the lower percentile when compared to his peer group - indicating a lack of defensive contribution and general influence on matches.
While the 25-year-old does possess certain strengths, the glaring weaknesses call for immediate attention for sustainable performance in Ligue 1. It is would be imperative for Aiyegun to work intensively on his creative output and overall passing influence. Given his age, there's still scope for development, and if he manages to rectify these aspects of his game, he could transform into a more complete player.
