Mattéo Guendouzi Scout Report

Mattéo Guendouzi's role as a linchpin in Lazio's midfield is underscored by his exceptional progressive passing ability, placing him at the very top among his Serie A counterparts. His eye for a pass is complemented by impressive ball retention skills, making him a reliable fulcrum in distributing play and maintaining possession in the heart of the park. Despite a respectable goal efficiency and chance creation rate, Guendouzi's relatively lower goal threat hints at a player whose primary strength lies in crafting opportunities rather than finishing them. His progressive carrying is noteworthy, enabling him to drive the team forward and contribute effectively in the transition from defence to attack. Defensively, Guendouzi shows a competitive edge in duels, particularly aerial ones, which enhances his presence amidst the physical rigours of Serie A. However, his tendency to drop in ball recoveries suggests room for growth in terms of defensive contributions. Operating predominantly in the midfield third, he's a quintessential midfield orchestrator rather than a final-third dynamo, reflected in his lower percentile for touches in the attacking third. His balanced performance, with coachable shortcomings, makes Guendouzi a fascinating subject for any scout report analysing style of play – a mature midfielder with the skills to control the tempo, yet possessing potential areas for refinement.
