Charles De Ketelaere Scout Report

Charles De Ketelaere, the 23-year-old Belgian in Atalanta, has been making waves in Serie A with his impressive performances. A versatile player, his main position is as a striker but can also adapt to an attacking midfield role or even serve as a right winger. With superb endurance and game presence, reflected in his 34 matches and 2026 minutes played, De Ketelaere has stamped his mark impressively across a range of vital metrics. His unrivalled ball recovery at 100% percentile showcases a level of grit and tenacity that is second to none. Coupled with solid ball retention (69%), he’s proven to be a significant asset in maintaining team possession and dictating game pace. Yet, it's his brilliance in chance creation (93%) and progressive passing (98%) that truly underlines his importance in Atalanta’s attacking dynamism. De Ketelaere’s numbers aren’t just about creating opportunities, he’s also a keen finisher, boasting a high goal efficiency percentile of 93%, backed by a solid goals-per-90 rate of 76%. He shows solid consistency too, with an xG per 90 of around 45%. However, despite his stellar performance in various aspects, De Ketelaere's goal threat (44%) and shots-per-90 (25%) appear to be areas that need improvement. Despite a generally potent presence in front of the goal, the low frequency and threat of his shooting suggests room for improved aggressiveness and decision-making within the 18-yard area. Over all, De Ketelaere is a young prodigy, marking his name in the game early on with compelling performances. Sporting a balanced blend of creation and finishing, he is indeed shaping up to become one of Belgium’s prolific exports to the world of football.
