Nicola Sansone Scout Report
At age 32, Nicola Sansone has shown himself to still be a potent force in Serie A. Primarily playing as a left winger for Lecce, Sansone has excelled in several key areas during the 2023-2024 season. His strengths clearly lie in creating opportunities for his teammates and himself, with a particularly impressive goal threat percentile (95.56%) and progressive passing percentile (91.11%). These stats pinpoint him as a consistently dangerous presence in the attacking third.
Sansone's ability to be a dependable conduit of offense is further underscored by his chance creation percentile (77.78%) and his success rate with crosses (77.27%). Beyond creating chances, the Italian veteran still knows how to find the back of the net as evidenced by his xG per 90 percentile of 88.64% and his goals per 90 at 75%.
However, Sansone's game isn’t without its shortcomings. His ball recovery (8.89%) and goal efficiency (28.89%) percentages are notably inferior, suggesting a certain inefficiency in both controlling the game and converting chances. The most startling statistic is his dispossessed per 90 percentile which stands at an alarming 95.45%, indicating that Sansone tends to lose possession far too frequently in games.
Overall, despite his age and some deficiencies, Sansone's ability to essentially create and contribute to goal-scoring opportunities makes him a noteworthy player in Italy's top flight.
