Evert Linthorst Scout Report

In our scout report, we spotlight Evert Linthorst, a versatile midfielder for the Go Ahead Eagles in the Eredivisie. He may only be 24, but don't let his age fool you. Linthorst demonstrates tremendous maturity in his role as a defensive midfielder, boasting a ball retention percentile that puts many veteran players to shame. He also shows adeptness in regaining possession, ranking fairly high in recoveries and interceptions, making him an essential bulwark in the Eagles' defensive lineup. However, Linthorst isn't merely a defensive dynamo. His progressive passing stats highlight his capability to initiate threatening counterattacks. That said, his goals, assists, and chance creation metrics leave a bit to be desired for a player of his caliber. He appears to be more of a playmaker than a goal threat, a trait reflected in his high activity in the midfield third. Despite his strengths, Linthorst may need to focus on winning duels in the air, as his aerial success rate is middling, indicating potential vulnerability against aerially-superior opponents. Surprisingly, for a defensive midfielder, Linthorst hardly indulges in fouls or gets caught in the referee's notebook. Overall, Linthorst is quite the gem, showing great potential for growth given his current play style and player stats. He undoubtedly possesses the makings of a midfielder who can blend defensive grit with forward-thinking vision, a crucial attribute in the modern game.
