Ilija Vukotić Scout Report

Scout report: Ilija Vukotić, a commanding figure in the heart of Boavista's midfield in the Primeira Liga. Vukotić seems to be a true master of the air and duel situations, his performance being in the top tier for his position in the league – challenging any striker who dares enter his domain. His impressive ball retention aptitude keeps him in control in the middle of the park, allowing his team to dictate the rhythm of the game. However, Vukotić’s playing style features a significant dichotomy. While offensively his chance creation and goal efficiency rank high upon the percentile spectrum, his goal threat leaves much to be desired. With his touches percentile on the lower end, it’s probable that Vukotić prefers a more direct style of attack when in possession, rather than retaining the ball for enormous periods. Being primarily a Defensive Midfielder, performing poorly in ball recovery and interception can be quite concerning, suggesting that his tackling game needs improvement; this is further exacerbated by his foul commitment rate, which is more frequent than the average player in his position. Such misdemeanours have resulted in a high number of yellow cards, an alarming sign which affirms Vukotić's disciplinary issues. In terms of player activity and possession area, Vukotić is prominently seen dominating the midfield third, with tactical inclination towards defensive roles. The fingers of his influence extend less toward either penalty area or the attacking third, consistent with his low goal threat metric. As the scout analysis suggests, Vukotić, 25, is a solid presence in the midfield but has room for further growth in terms of tackling ability and positional discipline; if these challenges are well-addressed, his potential could well sky-rocket in the coming seasons.
