Jordy Clasie Scout Report

Jordy Clasie, at 33, remains a linchpin in AZ Alkmaar's midfield, showcasing a masterclass in defensive midfield play with his exceptional ball recovery and retention skills, both sitting in the top percentile of his peers. His capability to intercept effectively and his penchant for winning duels reaffirm his defence-oriented mindset, which is critical for halting opposition attacks. His progressive passing is another standout aspect of his game, positioning him as a vital conduit between defence and attack, although it contrasts sharply with his limited progressive carrying. Claisie's playing style is marked by a preference for short, precise passes, contributing to his high pass accuracy and helping maintain possession in pivotal spaces. However, his offensive contributions aren't quite as formidable—with modest chance creation and low goal threat revealing a heavy bias towards defensive duties. His role is predominantly rooted in the midfield third, and he's more of a midfield shield than a creative engine, which is further evidenced by his relatively low assist per 90 rate despite seeing a fair amount of the ball. Moreover, his aerial prowess remains an area for improvement, as indicated by his subpar aerial duel win rate. While not one to venture much into the attacking third, Claisie's discipline and tactical acumen enable him to excel in his primary role as a defensive bulwark, making him an enduring asset for AZ Alkmaar in the Eredivisie.
