Makhtar Gueye Scout Report

Makhtar Gueye presents an intriguing profile in our scout report. Playing as a striker for RWD Molenbeek, Gueye has gained a reputation as a formidable goal threat, ranking amongst the top echelons of the Pro League A in that regard. His impressive ball recovery drags him into influential battles, echoing his Senegalese roots. Noteworthy is his extraordinary command in the air, winning every aerial duel he engages in, belying the popular strikers' trope of ground dominance. However, for every strength, there seems to be a considerable counterbalance. His ball retention needs immediate attention, ranking worryingly low, a fact that can jeopardize a team's forward momentum. Gueye's rather disappointing goal efficiency score suggests a player that benefits from a flurry of chances yet remains wasteful, while his pass accuracy is startlingly weak, a rarity for a seasoned 26-year-old striker. On the disciplinary side, Gueye has demonstrated an overtly aggressive approach, with high fouls committed and yellow card percentile, a liability teams may have to bear with his robust style of play. Despite his possession area revealing a balanced coverage, the low percentage in the attacking third and penalty area could explain his mediocre goals per match rate, unveiling a key area of focus. Bearing in mind his strengths and weaknesses, with the right development, Gueye can be molded into a more rounded and impactful striker; evidence perhaps of his untapped potential. These insights are key to understanding this unique player and, if addressed, Gueye holds the promise to develop into a more potent force in the future.
