Marcos Llorente Scout Report
Marcos Llorente has proven himself to be an invaluable and versatile asset to Atletico Madrid, operating masterfully across a gamut of positions from central midfield through to striker. The 29-year-old Spaniard is superbly efficient when it comes to finding the net, as evidenced by his outstanding goal efficiency and goal threat. Llorente's instincts around the box are hawk-like, making him a potent point of attack. His commendable proficiency in chance creation also cements his ethos as a well-rounded attacking force.
Taking a deeper dive, Llorente demonstrates solid ball recovery and progressive carrying, with these aspects of his game sitting comfortably above the 50% percentile mark.
However, it is evident that his passing, both progressive and overall accuracy-wise, could use some work -- he falls lower on the percentile scale in these areas. The same goes for his success rate in dribbles and duels, which do not bad but could certainly elevate his game if improved upon.
His positioning on the field is largely centered around both the attacking and midfield third, which aligns with his higher goal threat and chance creation percentile. Nonetheless, his low percentile for touches might be a cause for concern as it could limit his opportunities to influence the game.
Despite some chinks in his armour, particularly regarding passing and ball possession, Llorente's impressive proficiency in front of goal together with a knack for chance creation certainly uplifts his profile, making him a force to be reckoned with on the pitch. It's clear that once the ball finds him, he's more likely to make a tangible impact on the game.
