Thibo Somers Scout Report

Thibo Somers is a versatile, sturdy right-winger, demonstrating an uncanny knack of recovering possession at an outstanding 97.14 percentile rank, which is his standout attribute. This particular feature of his game illustrates great work ethic and defensive guile, essential qualities for a wide player who also operates as a wing-back. Yet, where Somers shows a palpable prowess in ball recovery, his creative parameters stay alarmingly low; quite evident in rankings from his relatively weak ball retention and progressive carrying figures staggered at a mere 8.57% and 2.85% respectively - causing a legitimate concern about his ability to maintain control and advance play. Equally worrying are his underwhelming figures in chance creation and goal efficiency, progressive passing as well as poor cross completion and dribbling success rate anchored in the bottom operation periphery at 22.85%, 17.14%, 8.82% and 11.76% respectively. While his goal threat sits notably higher at 57.14%, with steady assists and goals per 90 at 50%, his contribution to Cercle Brugge's attack may benefit greatly from finding more refined balance between his defensive hustling and creative, attacking intent. At the age of 25, Somers still has plenty of time to develop and enhance the areas of weakness in his game. This coupled with his versatility across multiple positions, he can be a real asset for Cercle Brugge, provided he hones his craft intelligently. So, the story of Thibo Somers is, in essence, an intriguing tale of a multifaceted talent at a critical juncture of his career, who can be an interesting proposition with diligent improvement in his shortcomings.
