Emmanuel Boateng Scout Report

Emmanuel Boateng, at the ripe age of 28 years in the 2023-2024 season, has established himself as a serviceable striker with Rio Ave in the Primeira Liga. Despite impressive ball recovery rates that put him well into the top quartile of his peers (72.73%), Boateng’s performance leaves a to-be-desired imprint with regard to goal efficiency, lingering near the bottom at just 12.12 percentile rank. This is an area he'll need to improve upon to truly step up his contribution. His threat in the final third is noteworthy, as indicated by his above-average Goal Threat and Shots per 90 stats (63.63% and 72.73% respectively). Serving also as a versatile winger, his ability to carry the ball forward (63.63%) is a strong asset, although his less than stellar progressive passing impeaches his otherwise promising offensive portfolio with a minority percentile of 18.18%. The Ghanaian forward’s Achilles’ heel, however, is ball retention with a fairly low percentile of 30.3%. Whist his chance creation and goals per 90 sit comfortably in the middle percentile range (45.45%), his pass accuracy per 90 (30.3%) and expected assists per 90 (21.21%) illuminate a need for further development in his creative game. His above average xG per 90 (60.6%) reveals that he consistently finds himself in dangerous spots. To summarise, while Boateng has the raw qualities of a solid forward, he clearly needs to refine his goal scoring efficiency and ball retention.
