In this scout report, it is observed that Marco Kana, the 21-year-old Belgian Central Midfielder playing for Kortrijk in Pro League A, presents a mixed bag in terms of his player stats. Of value is his style of play, particularly his proficiency in interceptions - placing him in the top 12% of his context, indicative of his assertive defensive tendencies. This duel-winner quality is further emphasized by his strong aerial duel and overall duel-winning percentages, standing out at over 70% each.
However, there is room for growth in terms of his ball handling. His percentile rankings for ball recovery and ball retention straddle the middle of the pack, indicating a decent but not exemplary ability to regain and maintain possession. More glaring is his lower percentile ranking in chance creation, underlining a potential area for improvement. His goal threat and assist creation stand in the lower spectrum, a clear pointer towards a player whose major contributions are not in the attacking third.
On discipline, Kana's yellow card percentile score is concerning, placing him among the more cautioned players in the league. His playing style, though commendable in his midfield third dominance, leaves little to be desired when it comes to attacking contributions, as reflected in his extremely low involvement in the attacking penalty area.
In overall, Kana showcases strengths as a defensive-minded midfielder with room for development in his attacking contribution and disciplinary control.
