Matías Lacava Scout Report

Matías Lacava, the 21-year-old Venezuelan winger who has plied his trade in Primeira Liga for Vizela, shows versatile operational capability, starring as a left winger with occasional position switches to midfielder and an infrequent appearance on the right wing. For players his age, his metrics indicate immense potential. Lacava particularly excels in ball recovery (74.5 percentile), ball retention (63.6 percentile) and chance creation (63.6 percentile), shining in areas crucial to his position. Moreover, he makes his presence felt in the match with commendable assist figures (83.33 percentile) and a high xA per 90 minutes (85.19 percentile), epitomizing the very definition of a team player. Lacava's strength lies in his dribbling skills with a respectable 68.52 percentile score, though his goal threat and efficiency are underwhelming for a winger, falling in the low 20s percentile. Remarkably low levels of progressive passing (14.5 percentile) points to room for growth in his game strategy. The aspect needing immediate attention is his ball retention: he is dispossessed every 90 minutes, a daunting stat placing him in the 100th percentile - the only one in his league to have this dubious distinction. His pass accuracy per 90 minutes also languishes at mere 24.07 percentile. In conclusion, Lacava is a budding talent with significant strengths in ball recovery and chance creation but needs to work on his goal efficiency and, notably, eliminating his record of being dispossessed.
