Leroy Fer Scout Report

In this scout report, we turn our spotlight to Alanyaspor's defensive midfielder Leroy Fer. Despite being 34, which is typically considered older in football terms, Fer manages to shine in the Süper Lig with excellent ball retention, placing him in the upper quartile of players in the league. His main strengths lie in his goal-efficiency - where he excels in the top 15% of his peers - and his aerial prowess, winning a staggering 83% of his aerial duels, a formidable statistic irrespective of age or position. However, it isn't all smooth sailing for Fer. His chances creation leaves a lot to be desired, barely scraping the bottom third in the league for his position. His progressive carrying doesn't paint a pretty picture either, placing him in the lower rungs. These suggest that while he is efficient when he gets near the goal, getting there seems to be a struggle for him. From a defensive perspective, his ball recovery is just average, and his interceptions rank notably low, exposing weaknesses that opponents could exploit. These lower rankings are largely offset, though, by an exceptionally high foul commitment rate, placing him among the less-disciplined players in the Süper Lig. Despite these deficiencies, there's no doubt Fer exhibits a combative style of play that has seen him score consistently, making him a goal threat opponents should not overlook. His style of play raises questions about sustainability, but there's no denying the spark he brings to Alanyaspor's midfield.
