Scout report is in for Congolese attacking midfielder Grady Diangana of West Bromwich Albion in the 2023-2024 Championship season. Diangana's performance places him as a potent offensive weapon, boasting extraordinary metrics in chance creation, goal efficiency, and goal threat — all solidly among the top 10% of his peers.
His style of play is characterized by successful progressive carrying, evidenced by a staggering percentile rank of over 98%, and almost equally impressive successful dribbles per 90 statistics. These strengths suggest a notably dynamic player with effective one-on-one skills and the ability to drive the game forward. But Diangana isn't just about carrying the ball; he delivers goals and assists at a stellar rate, excelling in both xG per 90 and assists per 90.
However, his contributions are somewhat limited by a noticeably lower stint in ball possession and a below-average rate of ball recovery. His defensive stats also leave something to be desired, with dismal numbers in recoveries and interceptions ranking him in the bottom 10%. Lastly, his pass accuracy per 90 reiterates a story of a player who could improve his distribution.
Increasing his ball possession and distribution accuracy could help elevate Diangana's game to new heights. Despite this, his attacking potency cannot be overlooked, with his dominant presence not just in the midfield but also the attacking third, demonstrating his role as a driving force in West Bromwich Albion's offensive line.
