Lucas Kal Scout Report
Lucas Kal, 28-year-old Brazilian midfielder and part of Atletico GO's stalwarts, operates with an important spectrum of positioning on the field, from right midfield to center back and central mid positions. His versatility is no less mirrored in his key game asset - ball retention. Kal ranks in the top percentile among his peers in Brazil’s Série A, according to stats; a testament to his extraordinary control even amidst the high-tempo challenges of modern-day football. His progressive passing ability is equally impressive, refuting any criticism of being overly conservative, with a 100% rating that demonstrates a keen eye for forward-thinking distribution.
However, Kal's stats reveal less inspiring aspects of his game. His chance creation ability, critical in a midfield role, languishes in the dreary low 3.33%. His goal threat and progressive carrying are also disappointingly low surmising a player less likely to take on players and create goal-scoring opportunities for himself. Although noteworthy for his ball recovery ability and pass accuracy per 90 minutes, sitting above average at 63.33% and 90% respectively, his lack of impact upfront, as suggested by a low xG (6.67%) and dispossessed per 90 (3.33%), certainly exposes a significant weak spot.
In conclusion, Lucas Kal is a master of ball possession and distribution but should absolutely seek to improve his forward play to enhance his overall contribution to Atletico GO’s cause. His adaptability and command of the game's fundamental aspects are promising, suggesting that given the right direction, he could add more layers to his gameplay. Nevertheless, his current standing is a testament to his solidity as a footballer in Série A.
