Gonçalo Ramos, the 22-year-old Portuguese striker hailing from Paris Saint-Germain, demonstrates undeniable prowess in his ability to recover the ball, ranking impressively high at 93.75%. This attribute showcases his defensive contribution, which is rare for the striker position. Additionally, Ramos displays a severe attacking threat, with his goal threat and Goals per 90 ranking at a formidable 96.875% and 96.88% respectively, indicating his prodigious goal scoring capabilities. His shot rate is also commendable, earning him a positioning in the top echelons at 90.62%.
Despite his goal-scoring prowess, Ramos shows his limitations in chance creation, a relatively low 12.5% suggesting his struggles in playmaking. Moreover, his rather poor results in progressive carrying at meager 3.125%, hint at his restrictive ability to transport the ball upfield effectively. This is a significant weakness for a striker, potentially hampering the team's transitional play.
However, at 22 and performing efficiently in one of Europe's top leagues, Ramos shows enormous potential. His high efficiency in recovering the ball and his clinical goal scoring make him a force to reckon with. If he can develop his chance creation and progressive carrying capabilities further, Ramos has all the makings of becoming a complete attacker and a cornerstone player for both Paris Saint-Germain and Portugal.
