Abdoulaye Sissako Scout Report

Abdoulaye Sissako has emerged as a reliable figure in Kortrijk's midfield in the 2023-2024 Pro League A season. Often deployed as a Central Midfielder with additional duties in transition areas of Center Back and Defensive Midfield, the 26-year-old Frenchman exudes a playing style notably honed in the art of ball recovery, where he ranks in the high 75th percentile. He shines when it comes to dueling opponents for the ball, winning over 70 percent of face-offs, bolstered by a solid 68 percent success rate in aerial duels. The scout report illuminates Sissako as an engaging player who knows when to dart forward, reflected in his progressive carrying — a stylish feat placing him at a commendable 72nd percentile. Often seen orchestrating Kortrijk's play in the midfield third, he can effectively retain possession, a skill that he exhibits better than 62 percent of his contemporaries. Noticeable too is his robust contribution to defensive work, consistently disrupting opponent plays, demonstrated by an interceptions percentile of over 70. However, creativity seems a relative blind spot in Sissako's style of play: his chance creation and progressive passing find him languishing towards the lower end of the spectrum. His substantial midfield presence notwithstanding, he reveals a restrained approach in the final third, with modest goal threat and efficiency stats. In conclusion, Sissako is a player who brings much value with his defensive midfield duties and can be an engine in the heart of midfield, while improvements in goal participation could elevate his overall game. Fearless in duels and an ever-ready contributor to ball recovery, Sissako's strengths carve him out as a critical element in Kortrijk's tactics.
