Benito Raman, the dynamic Belgian forward, strikes as a potent offensive force for KV Mechelen this season. At 30, his goal threat stands out spectacularly, topping the Pro League rankings. Raman's lethal finishing is unmatched, netting frequently despite fewer touches on the ball, highlighting his efficiency and directness in the attack. His goal efficiency and xG statistics affirm his capability as a clinical finisher, contributing significantly from central and wing positions. Despite his prowess in delivering goals, his creativity in playmaking stalls somewhat, with chance creation and assists rating lower, possibly due to his primary focus on goal-scoring. Progressive passing is one of his surprising strengths, suggesting an ability to link play and enable counters effectively. However, his progressive carrying suffers, indicating a need for improvement in ball movement when dribbling. Raman is quintessentially a striker who maximises opportunities, embodying a direct style of play that maximally capitalises on limited ball possession, a valuable asset in any scout report focused on effectiveness in striking positions.
