Deniz Undav Scout Report
Deniz Undav, the versatile striker for VfB Stuttgart, has demonstrated remarkable potency on the field this season. The German attacker posits an impressive array of skills, chiefly in chance creation and goal efficiency, with the 27-year-old ranking in the top tenth percentile for both metrics. His ability to hold onto the ball remains another strength, having a high percentile in ball recovery and retention, reinforcing his presence in key attacking areas.
Additionally, Undav's sublime contributions to Stuttgart's attacking prowess are shown in his high percentiles in assists and expected goal contributions (xA and xG), making him a relentless threat in front of opponents' goals. His progressive carrying and passing falls heavily on the side of excellence, proving his adeptness at propelling the team forward.
However, there is room for improvement in Undav's game, notably in his aerial battles and duel win percentage, both of which sit in the lower third percentile. His one-on-one and penalty area defending abilities also lag behind, although the focus for a striker of his calibre is not necessarily on these departments.
Undav's touch-centric playing style and high dispossession resistence underline his distinctive effectiveness in the attacking third and the midfield, even though his presence in the defensive regions was limited. With age on his side, Undav's enduring performances epitomise the future of German football.
