Federico Zaracho is an industrious midfielder, playing for Atletico MG in Brazil's Série A. At 26, the Argentine has shown some impressive metrics, particularly in terms of ball recovery and retention where he ranks in the top 20% amongst his peers. This underscores his role as a dominant figure at the heart of the pitch, where he is able to intercept opposing plays and maintain possession for his side.
Zaracho's goal efficiency is another of his strengths, sitting in the 80th percentile, he has a keen eye for goal and capitalizes on opportunities presented to him. This is also reflected in his above average goals per 90 percentile of 73.33%. This, however, does not translate into an effective chance creation where he falls into the middle-pack of the 40th percentile, indicating room for improvement in turning opportunities into goals for the team.
The player falls short with only 3.33% in progressive carrying. This exceptionally low percentile indicates a player who might struggle to travel with the ball upfield, lacking the carry-the-game dynamism many modern midfielders possess. Additionally, Zaracho shows a weak inclination for successful crosses and dribbles ranking at 6.67% and 13.33% percentile respectively, thus pinpointing areas for him to sharpen his skills in.
Overall, Zaracho's style leans more towards robust defensive midfield proficiency coupled with striking efficiency, while his ability to build plays and weave through defenses could use improvement.
