Diogo Leite Scout Report

Diogo Leite, Union Berlin's high-performing centre-back, has made quite the impression in the 2023-2024 Bundesliga season. This Portuguese defender, known for his splendid display of ball recovery ability, consistently ranks high among his league peers, demonstrating an uncanny knack to regain possession for his side. Leite plays a controlled, conservative style, often seen commanding his side's defensive third and managing the bulk of his activities in the midfield. His interceptions rank in the upper echelons in the Bundesliga, a testament to his astute reading of the game and positioning. Moreover, he's more than capable with the ball at his feet, with a respectable percentile in progressive passing. However, as with every player whose strengths are lauded, Leite has his Achilles heel. Despite an aggressive and combative playing nature, demonstrated by his propensity to commit fouls, his overall ball retention and pass accuracy paint a less flattering picture. The Portuguese's low percentile in these categories indicates a propensity to lose possession and a lack of precision in his passing, aspects no doubt Union Berlin's coaching staff would want to improve on. The player's scout report doesn't shy away from his lack of contribution to attacking phases of play, with his touches in the attacking third and chance creation percentiles on the lower side, but this in no way detracts from his primary role: directing the defensive orchestra from the heart of the backline.
