Martin Erlic Scout Report

Martin Erlic, the Croatian center back for Sassuolo has shown a solid performance in the 2023-2024 Serie A season. One of Erlic's biggest strengths is his defensive prowess. His scout report indicates strengths in ball recovery and goal efficiency, ranking higher than 64% of the defenders in the league. His high standing in goal threat also suggests a propensity to be a decisive factor in set pieces. However, the style of play of the defensive stalwart involves lower ball retention and relatively subpar pass accuracy, as evidenced by his below average percentile, indicating a few areas for improvement. Erlic's lower score in the chance creation metric, not typically a concern for a centre back, comes as no surprise. Nonetheless, it does indicate his more traditional defensive role rather than an overlapping, attacking center back. The significant activity in both the midfield and defensive third signals his natural versatility, as he oscillates between these areas effectively, albeit with less presence in the attacking third. Despite his notable strengths, Erlic's aerial duel win percentage appears to be a potential weak link, sitting markedly below average which is a concern given his role. Overall, Erlic is a dynamic center back who mixes traditional defensive aptitude with a knack for goal threat. Although he shows considerable room for improvement in passing accuracy and aerial duels, his invaluable defensive contributions certainly justify his standing in Sassuolo's line-up.
