Lee Jae-sung Scout Report

Lee Jae-sung, at the age of 32, continues to be a pivotal figure for Mainz 05 in the Bundesliga, demonstrating a blend of finesse and tactical intelligence fitting for an attacking midfielder. His style of play is notably goal-oriented, boasting exceptional goal efficiency within the top echelon, which reflects an impressive knack for converting chances decisively. He's a covert threat, operating primarily in the attacking and midfield thirds where he deftly orchestrates scoring opportunities. Interestingly, Lee's chance creation remains a high point, complemented by substantial xA stats, underscoring his role as a key playmaker despite low overall possession. However, his game isn't without its nuances. Lee's pass accuracy and retention are surprisingly low, which suggests a tendency to opt for riskier, more ambitious plays. While this trait embodies his directness, it does put his team at risk during transitions. His progressive carrying is a weak spot, possibly indicating that he relies more on precise passing than dribbling to transition play forward. Defensively, Lee's average duel win percentage means he's not the most reliable in tackles, though he's still relatively sharp when intercepting the ball. The scout report highlights that while his aerial prowess isn't dominant, his attacking contributions arguably outweigh his defensive shortfalls, providing Mainz with critical penetration and inventive playmaking from midfield.
