Fabio Miretti Scout Report
In our latest scout report, we place the magnifying glass on a player who's rapidly gaining traction in Europe's football landscape, Juventus' prodigy Fabio Miretti. At merely 20 years old, he is dictating the tempo in the heart of the park in Serie A, grabbing both headlines and recognition for his performances.
While Miretti isn't among the most active midfielders globally, with his touches on the ball ranking him in the bottom 40%, he makes each contact count. He's operating most frequently between the midfield and attacking third, embodying the ideal role of a central midfielder.
The young Italian's true talent lies in chance creation and successful dribbles, with each category's percentile in the high 90s. With an uncanny ability to open up defences and leave opponents in the dust with his footwork, Miretti is demonstrating potential that far belies his years.
However, this play style comes with a downside; Miretti needs more discipline. Among his peers, the midfielder commits too many fouls, landing him in the 80th percentile. Moreover, a less than average ball recovery rate of 20% indicates a lack of defensive dexterity, something he'll need to address moving forward.
That said, for an emerging player commanding Juventus' central midfield while still deemed 'very young' even by U23 standards, he's holding his own. Despite lesser-than-average progressive passing and ball retention skills, he's still offering a significant goal threat and goal efficiency that hovers around the 50th percentile mark.
In summary, Miretti's emerging playing style relied heavily on his ability to create opportunities and dribble past opponents. His underwhelming statistics in defensive areas and indiscipline underline areas ripe for improvement, but at such a tender age, the sky's the limit for this young Italian starlet.
