Francesco Acerbi Scout Report

Francesco Acerbi, despite being at the ripe age of 36, continues to flourish at the heart of Inter's defence in Serie A. His play style is underpinned by a remarkable knack for ball retention and distribution, with nearly peerless accuracy and composure when in possession. He's a stalwart in the air, winning aerial duels with impressive consistency, and his reliability in one-on-one defensive duels is scarcely matched by his peers. Acerbi's orchestrations from the back line are reflected in his high number of touches, showcasing his pivotal role in maintaining Inter's ball flow, especially in the midfield third where he's most active. However, his ball recovery stats—particularly in retrieval—suggest areas lagging behind, highlighting a potential vulnerability in regaining possession. Even so, his tackling is disciplined, committing few fouls, which complements his strategic defensive awareness. Though his progressive passing could do with a bit more ambition, Acerbi's masterful control ensures he's a crucial asset in Inter's defensive structure.
