Jerry Yates Scout Report

During the 2023-2024 season, Swansea City striker Jerry Yates showed himself to be truly a threat to the opposition. Even though his goal efficiency was in the lower percentile (20.63%), his sheer ability to create goal-scoring opportunities — as indicated by his high percentile in the 'Goal Threat' category (93.65%) — marked him as one of the most dangerous forwards in the Championship. His ball retention and recovery skills were also commendable, securing spot in the upper percentiles (85.71% and 65.08%, respectively), which contributed greatly to Swansea's build-up play. His progressive passing abilities stood out (73.01%), although pass accuracy per 90 was marked as a clear area for further development, with a low ranking of 21.31%. On the other hand, Yates' performance in terms of chance creation, progressive carrying, assists per 90, and xA per 90 could use some improvement, with him landing in the lower percentiles for these statistics. Overall, at the age of 27, Jerry Yates has made a name for himself as a formidable striker. Despite his shortcomings in some areas of the game, his presence on the pitch continues to be a significant advantage for his team, and with some improvements, he could prove to be an even greater asset.
