Christian Kouamé, the 26-year-old Ivorian talent, has emerged as a versatile player for Fiorentina in the 2023-2024 Serie A season. Predominantly deployed as a left winger, but sometimes utilised on the right or as a striker, Kouamé brings a notable goal threat, falling into the 60th percentile in that area. He comes into his own, though, with his goals and xG per 90, both over 63%, showcasing his instinct to find the net.
However, this Fiorentina flyer is not just a one-trick pony. His 57.7% goal efficiency is testament to the fact that he capitalises on opportunities. His progressive passing and pass accuracy per 90-minute metrics show that he can lend a solid hand in build-up plays, although they leave some room for improvement.
Regrettably, Kouamé presents a disenchanting picture in other areas. His performances in ball recovery and retention, chance creation, and particularly progressive carrying, fall worryingly below average, all resting at under 15% percentile. Most worrisome, though, is his propensity to lose possession - a metric in which he sadly ranks the highest, with a 100% dispossession rate per 90 minutes. His low rates in successful crosses and dribbles per 90 further demonstrate areas he needs to improve to evolve into a more rounded player. Despite these shortcomings, the firepower he brings to Fiorentina's attack makes Christian Kouamé essential in their game plan.
