Harry Leonard Scout Report
Few players have risen as rapidly onto the Championship scene as Blackburn's 20-year-old English striker, Harry Leonard. At such a youthful age, his display of proficiency in some key metrics above seasoned peers is overwhelming and points towards a player with a promising future. His ball retention and progressive passing skills are exceptional, both ranking well within the top ten percentiles amongst strikers in his league. This pair of attributes combine to make him an invaluable asset in constructing lethal build-ups, as evidenced by an impressive 'chance creation' percentile of 68.25%.
Leonard's goal threat is also notable, ranking in the top quartile, and his assists per 90 minutes is amongst the highest in the league showing a player who not just finds the net, but can also set up his teammates effectively. His passing per 90 minutes is accurate as well, enhancing his value on the pitch. Perhaps the only element of his game that requires some sharpening is his goal efficiency and ball recovery - the former indicates that while potent in build-up and assist-making, Leonard needs to refine his scoring capabilities.
Leonard's age is an advantage here: there is plenty of time for him to solidify these areas of his game. He is clearly a player to watch out for in the near future, his performances demonstrating high potential. It is an exciting time for Blackburn Rovers, and we expect this young talisman to continue his ascent in English football and beyond, given his early performance in the Championship.
