Mehdi Abeid Scout Report
Mehdi Abeid, a seasoned attacking midfielder currently plying his trade for Istanbul Basaksehir in the Süper Lig, displays an intriguing contrast of fortitude and finesse which merits attention in this scout report. Abeid’s impressive bullishness is reflected in his knack for goal efficiency, standing at the 100th percentile. With a lethal goal threat, placed at an eye-catching 91.49 percentile, Abeid also flaunts an above-average assists per 90 stats, thereby bolstering his credibility as an offensive pivot.
While his aggression brings dividends in terms of goals and assists, it also has its pitfalls; notably in the discipline department. His fouls committed stands alarmingly at the highest end of the spectrum, an area he needs to rectify to avoid costly lapses in the game.
Abeid's ball recovery is noteworthy at over 50 percent indicating his aptitude to regain possession which provides a defensive sheath to his team. However, the Algerian midfielder's style of play betrays some concerning weaknesses. His overall duelling ability at a low 20.21 percentile poses a significant concern and his limited progressive passing and carrying ability, both below 15 percent, pull down his overall contribution to the team's attacking phases.
Despite being just above average in ball retention, Abeid’s pass accuracy and shots per 90 sit comfortably at approximately 77 percent, underlining his ability to effectively interlink play and pose a significant threat in the final third. Melded with his formidable goals per 90 stats, this makes him a potent force on the offensive front. However, the much-needed refinement in his style of play, particularly in terms of discipline and versatility, could unleash the full potential of this seasoned player.
