Vinícius Zanocelo Scout Report

Vinícius Zanocelo stands out as a central midfielder for Estoril, showing signs of being a steadily developing talent in the Primeira Liga. His style of play is grounded in ball retention and progressive passing, where he's amongst the league's upper echelons, but it's his ability to protect possession during challenging duels that truly shines in his scout report. Yet, this Brazilian dynamo's chance creation remains underwhelming, with low figures showing a need for improvement in developing scoring opportunities. His aerial prowess and duel win rates leave much to be desired, suggesting a vulnerability in physical contests. Despite having a firm presence in the midfield third, his attacking input, seen through limited contributions in the final third, is minimal, as evidenced by his low statistics in shots and xA. Notably, his high fouls and yellow cards point to a level of aggression that sometimes teeters beyond the line, needing refinement. At 23, Zanocelo shows promise with his ball distribution and retention skills, but for Estoril—and potentially higher aspirations—mastering his craft in more progressive, attacking roles will be crucial.
