Leonardo Balerdi Scout Report

Leonardo Balerdi's scout report for the 2024-2025 season reveals a centre-back who's not afraid to get involved in the heart of the action for Marseille. His unparalleled ball retention and recovery rates make him a pillar in possession, often dominating the midfield third. Impressively, Balerdi marries this technical prowess with an undeniable ability to create chances, an unusual yet enchanting trait for a defender. His knack for progressive carrying further underlines his willingness to push the team forward from the back. Yet, it's not all smooth sailing. His aerial duels and general duelling success suggest vulnerabilities, contrasting sharply with his other statistics. This inconsistency in physical confrontations might pose risks against physical forwards. Nonetheless, Balerdi's exceptional touch rate highlights his central role in dictating Marseille's tempo, making him indispensable despite the occasional defensive lapses.
