Dario Essugo Scout Report
In this scout report of young Portuguese midfielder Dario Essugo, one factor that immediately jumps out is his superlative ability in ball retention, ranking in the top 7.5% among midfielders in the Primeira Liga. This reveals a player who is incredibly adept at maintaining control over the ball in heated situations, making for effective ball possession and increasing his team's control over the game. Additionally, his dueling statistics are nothing short of impressive. Essugo boasts a near-perfect win rate in aerial duels, and his overall duel win percentage ranks him amongst the top 6.06% of players in the league.
However, while Essugo is undoubtedly a defensive powerhouse, his offensive metrics are less flattering. His chance creation percentile sits at a meager 4.5% – reflective of a relative inability to create scoring opportunities. Similarly, his goal threat and progressive passing leave much to be desired. Yet, with an unusually high rate of successful dribbles, Essugo seems capable of driving play forward, but he may need to work on converting these opportunities into assists or goals.
On the disciplinary front, his fouls committed percentile is on the higher end, suggesting he may need to refine his tackling approach to reduce risk of penalties.
Essugo's style of play is predominantly centered around the midfield, commanding the ball roughly 60% of the time, which, despite his low offensive metrics, indicates that he plays a pivotal role in Chaves's strategies. A defensive bulwark with a winning mentality who also excels at ball possession, Dario Essugo, should however, focus on boosting his offensive contributions and refining his defensive techniques to ascend to the next level.
