Kevin Volland Scout Report

Kevin Volland, Union Berlin's seasoned striker, now at the age of 31, presents a game style that leans heavily towards a playmaker, rather than a traditional striker. His impressive performance in progressive passing, sitting in the 91% percentile, and ball recovery (90%) speaks to a player whose role is more around dictating the flow of the game and winning possession back, rather than finishing offensive actions. While stationed in the front, Volland is no stranger to the defensive third maintaining a high percentile in defensive touches (93%). On the downside, Volland lacks significant scoring efficiency, landing in the lower end with a mere 12% goal efficiency and just 18% goal threat. His shots and expected goals also reflect this trend, both coming in below the 50% mark. However, his chance creation ability is fairly decent (44%), showing that he can still contribute to goal opportunities. Heading into the twilight of his career, Volland is effective in the right strategy but may not be the top choice for a team looking for strikers with lethal finishing. Instead, his finesse in positional play coupled with his strong progressive passing and possession recovery skills makes him a nuanced asset in an attacking setup that leans towards ball control and strategic buildup.
