Igor Paixão Scout Report

Igor Paixão, Feyenoord's 23-year-old Brazilian left winger is making a lasting impression in the 2023-2024 Eredivisie season. The first eye-catching attribute of Paixão is his prowess in front of goal. Scoring consistently with his percentile for goal efficiency and goal threat reaching up as high as 84.13% and 87.3% respectively, it's clear that the majority of his team's attacking impetus stems from him. Additionally, his impressive xG per 90 at 83.87% and goals per 90 at 85.48% cement his place among the league's most lethal finishers. Paixão's ability to create for others is equally commendable. With 85.48% in xA per 90, he often finds himself in the position of the architect for Feyenoord's attacking plays, suggesting a great understanding of his teammates' movements. His successful crossing ability is absolute elite, sitting at an exceptional 93.55%. However, football is a game of two halves, and while he excels in goal-related activities, he does fall short in certain important areas. With a dispossessed per 90 rate at an alarming 12.9%, his ball control and decision-making abilities are areas he might want to work on. Similarly, his less-than-inspiring progressive passing ranking at 36.51% implies a struggle with linking up play and transitioning the ball from defensive to offensive areas effectively. Despite such flaws, the young winger has demonstrated a real propensity for recovery and retention of the ball, helping his team regain and maintain possession, highlighted by the percentile scores of 68.25% and 66.67% respectively. For his age, Paixão's stats suggest a bright future, where polishing his shortcomings could make him a force to reckon with on the world stage.
