Jordan Pefok Scout Report
Jordan Pefok, the 28-year-old American striker for Borussia Mönchengladbach, offers an enticing bind of raw goal threat and high-level penalty area defending that few of his peers in the Bundesliga can claim to possess. His proficiency in the air (70.83%) and effective ball retention (70%) make him a formidable presence on the pitch. He's not a flashy dribbler; indeed, his progressive carrying reads a low 8.16%. Instead, Pefok champions a more traditional centre-forward style of play, capitalizing on positioning rather than beating players one on one.
However, despite his defensive prowess and goal threat, Pefok's chance creation (40%) and goal efficiency (18%) lag behind, indicating a need for more finesse in the final third. His touches, particularly in the attacking third (2.08%), could see improvement to increase his overall influence on the game. His pass accuracy (27.08%) also leaves room for improvement, but the stats do suggest a player who's direct in attack, often looking to threaten the goal rather than hold onto possession. Pefok embodies a rare breed of striker who can deliver defensively while hunting for goals relentlessly. With some polishing in his finishing and distribution, he has the potential to be a prolific frontman.
