Joca Scout Report
Joca, a seasoned right winger from Rio Ave in the Primeira Liga, continues to impress at the ripe age of 28. Evidently his experience is leveraged in his dynamism and versatility, effortlessly making his presence felt anywhere in the midfield and on either wing. Commanding the ball with astounding proficiency, Joca consistently ranks high in primary metrics like progressive carrying (58.18%) and ball retention(54.55%). Where he particularly thrives, and underpins his fundamental role within Rio Ave, is in his exceptional goal efficiency (90.91%) and progressive passing (94.55%). These scores are particularly remarkable indicating an inherent knack for moving the ball forward and converting opportunities to goals. Yet, in the same vein, a hint of inconsistency is seen in his relatively poor ball recovery (18.18%) and pass accuracy per 90 minutes (33.33%) percentile rankings. These figures signal an area for future improvement and potential vulnerability in high-pressure situations. Still, with a commendable number of successful dribbles per 90 minutes (74.07%), Joca's ability to penetrate the defense and create chances is clear. In broad stroke, this 28-year-old Portuguese national brings to the fore a sophisticated blend of agility, vision, and accuracy despite the sporadic lapses in his game. Offering an enviable offensive prowess, Joca clearly serves as a significant catalyst for Rio Ave's attacking thrusts, marking him as a player to watch out for.
