Miguel Almirón Scout Report

At age 29, Miguel Almirón is an experienced right-winger playing for Newcastle United in the Premier League. He exhibits a strong ball retention ability, as evident from his high ball retention statistics, which helps him in maintaining possession and ensuring control of the play. His excellent skill in winning aerial duels and overall duels boosts his gameplay particularly in aggressive and competitive scenarios. However, Almirón's effectiveness in chance creation and goal efficiency appears to be an area of concern – his percentile ranking is considerably lower, which could suggest limited contributions to scoring opportunities and goals. Though not a prolific shot-taker, he demonstrates a decent goal threat, indicating a moderate ability to pose a threat in front of the goal even with fewer chances. On the defensive end, Almirón has shown commendable penalty area defending ability especially for a winger. In terms of his style, while he gets a fair number of touches, he seems to prioritize quality over quantity. Despite limited touches, he does not necessarily translate it into higher assist and goal-generation stats, suggesting a more controlled, patient approach rather than a direct attack in his gameplay. In summary, Almirón is a reliable ball retainer with strong defending abilities, particularly in the penalty area, and an excellent dueler. However, his chance creation, goal efficiency, and progressive passing could use some improvements to enhance his overall impact on the game.
