Piero Hincapié Scout Report
Scout report time and Bayer Leverkusen's Piero Hincapié is our subject. The 22-year-old Ecuadorian centre-back, also capable at left back, has had a thunderous season in the Bundesliga, showing promising potential.
One eye-catching aspect of Hincapié's playstyle is his progressive carrying, ranked in the top 15% among his peers. A superb ball-carrier who isn't afraid to stride out from the back, he doesn't just do the simple things but adds dynamism to Leverkusen's setup.
The defender also hints at being a goal threat from set-pieces, reflected in a strikingly higher percentile. His on-field activity shows his range, with most actions happening in the midfield third; yet, he isn’t shy in venturing into the attacking third, highlighting his versatility.
On a slight concern, his ball retention sits in the bottom 10%, which might point to moments of carelessness or shaky under pressure - important areas for a young defender's growth. His aerial duel win rate also indicates there’s still room for improvement in his physical game.
His solid pass accuracy combined with a significant contribution to chance creation and unexpectedly high assists per 90, also establishes Hincapié not just as a promising defensive prospect, but potentially a creator from deeper possessions.
Hincapié’s season stats paint a picture of a bold, brave centre-back unafraid to contribute across the pitch, with tangible areas of development enhancing his prospect. Keep an eye on this diamond in the rough as he continues to sharpen his edges in the sporting crucible of the Bundesliga.
