Giacomo Bonaventura Scout Report

In our latest scout report, we turn our attention to an Italian wizard operating at the heart of Fiorentina's midfield - Giacomo Bonaventura. Despite being in the twilight of his career at 34, Bonaventura has been weaving impressive performances in the Serie A. An attacking midfielder by trade, he's also comfortable in central or defensive midfield roles, showcasing his versatility. Bonaventura's performance charts convey an exciting tale of his playing style. His ball retention (74.3% percentile amongst his peers) and progressive carrying (70.8% percentile) echo his penchant for controlled possession, underlining the Italian's composure and vision on the ball. The crux of Bonaventura's performances lies in his chance creation metrics - he is the maestro plotting Fiorentina's attacks, ranking in the top 20% of Serie A midfielders in terms of chance creation, boasting a staggering 99.12% in goal efficiency. While his interception and ball recovery indices dwell in the lower half, it's nothing to frown upon given his advanced role on the pitch. A lower foul count and moderate yellow card tally emphasise his disciplined style of play, even when under pressure. The low percentile of touches in the defensive third (8.81%) only solidifies this point further. The veteran Italian's numbers for successful dribbling per 90 (82.57%), aerial duel win rate (49.54%), and pass accuracy per 90 (62.39%) are all commendable for a player of his age. Most striking is his xA per 90 (98.17%) and xG per 90 (89.91%) - Bonaventura's directness in Fiorentina's attack shows he is still a potent threat, converting opportunities like a surgeon at the peak of his career. Despite the dipping curve of age, Bonaventura's stellar stats stand as testament to his enduring class and his ability to provide a cutting edge to the Viola's attack, thereby making him a priceless asset to the Florence outfit.
