Oihan Sancet Scout Report

Oihan Sancet assumes a pivotal presence in Athletic Club's attacking arsenal. His exceptional prowess in goal threat, chance creation, progressive carrying, and passing sets him apart from his peers. His creativity shines through, with a wonderfully instinctive knack for carving out goal-scoring opportunities that place him in the top echelon of La Liga's attacking midfielders. The regularity with which Sancet finds the back of the net and provides for others is nearly unparalleled, as his 30 match season reveals impressive per 90 metrics for goals, assists, expected goals (xG) and expected assists (xA). His domination doesn't stop there – Sancet's shimmies and feints allow him to beat defenders with a high dribble success rate, while also being a persistent menace when going for aerial duels. However, the strings broke in other arenas. Despite his remarkable attacking contribution, his ball recovery and retention skills are on the softer side of the spectrum and could be waypoints for growth. Moreover, one has to question his efficiency with every touch, with our analysis eking out that his touches of the ball are in the lower strata compared to similar players in his position. Perhaps, Sancet might need to be more clinical and disciplined given that he doesn't have the ball at his feet as much as one would expect. Defensively, he often struggles to win tackles, with a lower duel win percentage. It would also seem that his interceptions need upscaling for a player thrust into the high-octane frenzy of La Liga's midfield battles. Observing his activity and possession area, Sancet predominantly acts in the final third, with almost half of his touches occurring in the attacking region of the field, showing his inclination for coming alive in more venture-some stretches, staying true to his title of an "attacking" midfielder. His involvement in the defensive zone is limited, which perhaps indicates Athletic Club's tactical blueprint and Sancet's undeniable focus on driving forward rather than locking down the fort. In conclusion, while Sancet can rightly be hailed as an offensive juggernaut, there are areas for him to refine to truly unlock the mantle of a complete midfielder.
