At 32, Jonathan Cafu is a seasoned part of Cuiaba's squad in Série A, one of Brazil's top football leagues. As a right winger, his style of play is characterized by an impressive goal threat, ranking in the top 4% of his peers. Coupled with percentile rankings of 63% and 77% respectively, for progressive carrying and passing, showcase his ability to drive the ball forward and maintain attacking momentum.
Although, his assists per 90 stat screen another strength, ranking at a strong 87%. Cautionary evidence of his lesser strengths lies in his percentile stats of 33% for goal efficiency and a lowly 17% for chance creation. These statistics illustrate inconsistency in converting opportunities into successful goals. His ball retention percentile of 33% and pass accuracy per 90 percentile of 30% also speak to areas of improvement in maintaining control of the ball and successful execution of passes.
However, caution must be treaded with his dispossession percentile, ranking high at 90%, showing he loses possession too frequently in games. His defensive attributes, such as ball recovery, upon which he ranks at 50%, is average and could be improved especially in tougher games. Despite his age, his performances illustrate a gifted player on the right flank, with a crafty attacking sense, but highlighting a need to be more consistent and less liability with ball possession.
