Matthijs de Ligt Scout Report

In this scout report for Matthijs de Ligt, the Dutch centre-back currently plying his trade at Manchester United, we see a commanding presence in the defensive third. His aerial prowess is exceptional, winning almost every battle above ground – a cornerstone of his uncompromising style of play. He's equally adept in reading the game, as evidenced by his high interception stats, ensuring the opposition's attacking threats are diminished significantly. While de Ligt exhibits excellent ball retention skills, his progressive passing isn't as stellar, leaving room for growth in advancing play from the back. Similarly, his ball recovery rate is something to watch, given that a more assertive stance could elevate his defensive contributions. Though he seldom ventures into the attacking third, his stable defensive midfield touches ensure a solid backline. Overall, de Ligt is a robust defensive anchor who could further enhance his game by improving his progression in attack and ball recovery.
