Zito Luvumbo Scout Report

At just 22 years of age, Zito Luvumbo—who currently plies his trade as a dynamic striker for Serie A side Cagliari—is a footballer who commands attention. Although young, the Angolan attacking prodigy has already begun to etch his name in the annals of Serie A, demonstrating potent strengths alongside a few areas for improvement. Luvumbo operates mainly in the striker role but can also feature as a right or left midfielder, or as a left winger, showcasing enviable versatility. His skill in progressive carrying is unparalleled among colleagues, ranking an unrivalled 100th percentile, while his chance creation sits impressively high at 89.1%. True to an advanced playmaker, the striker's ability to provide assists per 90 minutes is superior, at 83.64%, with an expected assists (xA) per 90 minutes rate at 80%. This clearly highlights that Luvumbo’s game is more about setting up opportunities rather than directly converting them. While he brings formidable strengths, Luvumbo is not without weaknesses. His ball retention is relatively low at 27.3%, indicating a necessity to enhance his possession game. His poor goal threat (9.1%) and subpar xG per 90 (7.27%) rates suggest he is still to develop as a clinical finisher, despite playing a central role supposed to culminate in goals. In addition, his passing accuracy per 90 minutes, at a mere 12.73%, leaves much to be desired for an attacking player in a top-flight league. Embracing the talent and the growth areas, Zito Luvumbo's journey so far has been commendable, and if he continues to evolve his skillset, there is no doubt that he could soon be amongst the creme de la creme of Serie A strikers. His trajectory is indeed a testament to the adage that potential, combined with hard work, equals limitless possibilities.
