Oscar Fraulo, the Danish defensive midfielder from FC Utrecht, has proven himself to be a diamond in the rough in the 2023-2024 Eredivisie season. Despite being a mere 20 years old, Fraulo's scout report is filled with commendable gravitas.
His style of play reflects an exemplary sense of ball retention, ranking in the top 20% of the league. This indicates a player with superb technical abilities, surefootedness and mental agility. Pair this with his successful dribbling ability and aerial duel success rate, and it's evident we're talking about a hard-to-dispossess powerhouse in the making.
Progressive carrying seems to be Fraulo's true calling card - he lands in the top 15% for this metric. He is an authoritative figure in possession, someone who can maraud down the pitch with menace and purpose. Meanwhile, Fraulo also exceeds the league’s median for chance creation and assists, suggesting a playmaker shrouded in a defensive midfielder.
However, no player is without their flaws. Fraulo’s ability to progressive pass and recover the ball appears relatively modest when compared with his peers, hovering just below the average mark. His goal efficiency is also rather poor, lying at a quarter percentile. Fraulo also seems to lack discipline with a higher tendency to commit fouls and receive yellow cards.
In terms of activity, Fraulo hovers mostly in the midfield, with lesser action in goal-threatening areas. This hints at a player who prioritizes controlling the tempo of the match rather than scoring. In sum, watch this space, because despite a few kinks in his armor, Oscar Fraulo is fast-becoming a player to be reckoned with.
