Luka Jović Scout Report

Luka Jović, the 26-year-old Serbian striker currently lighting up Serie A with AC Milan, combines an ironclad grip on ball retention - holding a solid 73rd percentile ranking - with a keen eye for a progressive pass, sitting comfortably in the top 15% of his peers. His predominant strength, however, lies in front of goal. With an astonishing ranking in the 98th percentile for goal threat and a commendable 78% for goal efficiency, Jović's lethal finishing ability is laying the foundation of his reputation as one of the league's fiercest strikers. His healthy output of goals and xG per 90, both standing in the 90th percentile, are a testament to his ruthless effectiveness in the box. However, Jović's performances aren't without their weaknesses. His less than stellar ball recovery and chance creation metrics, sitting in the lower quartile, point to a player more comfortable finishing the moves rather than starting them. This is further reflected in his moderate percentile for progressive carrying. His pass accuracy also appears to be a significant area of improvement, standing only at 42%. As a player, Jović thrives in the cut-and-thrust of the attacking third, where his sharp shooting skills come to the fore. Balancing this with additional work on his overall contributory play, such as improving his ball recovery, and chance creation could potentially elevate him into the echelon of world-class forwards. His progress at the relatively young age of 26 and in the fiercely competitive environment of Serie A surely indicates a bright future ahead.
