Becir Omeragic Scout Report
In our latest scout report, we turn our attention to Becir Omeragic, a versatile Swiss defender currently plying his trade at Montpellier in Ligue 1. Boasting three positions in his arsenal - center back, left back, and defensive midfielder - Omeragic has quite an interesting player profile, particularly for his age of 22. Predominantly stationed in the midfield and defensive thirds, his key strengths are ball recovery and progressive carrying the ball, both of which rank impressively in the top 20% among his positional peers.
In terms of style of play, Omeragic shows a proficiency for intercepting play and regaining possession, contributing effectively to his team's defensive grit. However, his stats paint a picture of a player more comfortable working the ball up the field than maintaining possession or creating chances - his ball retention and chance creation metrics languish in the bottom half, along with his progressive passing. This might hint at an inclination towards direct, proactive football.
On the flip side, a glaring weakness in his skillset is his low aerial duels win percentage and overall duel win rate, both landing in the lower 40 percentile, indicating room for improvement in his physical game. Furthermore, he's less involved in terms of touches, with the stat sitting below 10%, and his fouls committed percentile is notably low.
Though not a prolific chance creator, Omeragic comes across as a team player who prioritizes regaining and moving the ball swiftly. His player stats tell the tale of a confident and fast-paced player - a developing gem in the rough that, with time and honing, is likely to shine brighter in the seasons to come.
