Jefferson Lerma Scout Report

Jefferson Lerma's seasoned presence in Crystal Palace's midfield during the 2024-2025 Premier League campaign is marked by a defensive tenacity and adept ball distribution, crucial to the team's core. His style of play reveals an efficient balance between shielding the defence and linking play through progressive passing, ranking impressively high in this category. Lerma's strength in interceptions and recoveries further underscores his role as a disruptor, effectively breaking up opposition plays and reclaiming possession – a notable highlight in his scout report. However, his contribution in the attacking third leaves room for growth, with chance creation, goal efficiency, and assists per 90 all sitting on the lower end of the spectrum, suggesting a more conservative approach. Moreover, Lerma's dribbling and pass accuracy percentile reflect areas that could use refinement to enhance his overall impact on the game's offensive side. His involvement mostly spans the midfield and defensive thirds, indicating his primary function as a midfield enforcer rather than an attacking force.
