Nathan Collins Scout Report

Nathan Collins, Brentford's formidable centre-back, displays a commanding presence in the Premier League at just 23. His style of play is defined by a remarkable ability to win aerial duels, reflected in his outstanding win percentage. An adept ball winner, Collins ranks high in ball recovery and duel success, underpinning his solid defensive resilience. Notably, for a defender, his chance creation stands out, positioning him amongst the elite in this defensive metric—indicative of a unique ability to initiate play from the back, edging out even some midfielders in this regard. However, his proficiency falters in ball retention and pass accuracy, points that suggest room for development in on-the-ball skills, particularly under pressure. In possession, he predominantly operates in his own third, with progressive carrying skills that hint at some latent potential for forward thrusts. Surprisingly, while his interception statistics are modest, his disciplined approach is evident, committing fewer fouls and drawing scant yellow cards. In short, Collins embodies a modern defender with traditional virtues, complemented by surprise offensive contributions. With little margin to ascend in the world-class rankings, his current trajectory promises to intrigue scouts across Europe.
