Walid Cheddira Scout Report

Walid Cheddira, the 26-year-old Moroccan striker, currently plying his trade for Frosinone in Italy's Serie A, presents an interesting prospect in the world of Football. Renowned for his commendable ‘goal threat’ and ‘progressive carrying’ abilities, Cheddira resides in the top quartile amongst his peers with respective percentiles of 74.545% and 61.818%. His ability to create danger near the opposing goal, coupled with his forward driving runs with the ball, undeniably set him apart. But as any football analyst would tell you, it's the strikers' job to not only pose a threat, but to convert them into goals, a dimension where Cheddira falls significantly short as his ‘goal efficiency’ languishes at a mere 10.91%. However, it’s not just goal conversion that requires attention; his ‘chance creation’ skills are also weak, barely reaching the paltry percentile of 3.63%. Cheddira’s game is further marred by poor ‘ball retention’ and lacklustre ‘progressive passing’, with corresponding percentiles of 12.73%, citing an area of concern that needs urgent addressing. These figures reflect his inclination to lose possession and his inability to further the play during matches, which often puts his team at a disadvantage. While his per-90 metrics fall somewhat in the middle of the pack with 'goals per 90' and 'shots per 90' at 45.45% and 54.55% respectively, they fail to mask the fundamental flaws visible in Cheddira’s gameplay. Despite these blemishes, Cheddira is in the prime of his career showing promising aspects. If he can work on rectifying his striking shortfalls and refine his ball handling, he could easily play a pivotal role in Frosinone’s Serie A campaign.
