Nikola Storm Scout Report

Nikola Storm, a key wing player for KV Mechelen as well as a national representative of Belgium, showcases a mix of exceptional skills and much-needed improvements. His performance remarkably stands out in his ability to create chances, with a percentile of 71.4%, demonstrating an adept eye for openings. His proficiency is most strikingly highlighted in his assists per 90 stat, earning him a 100% score in comparison to his peers, making him statistically the best left winger in the league for assists. Moreover, he shows great ball retention at 68.6% and progressive carrying at 65.7%, showing his ability to drive the ball forward. However, despite his superior flair at spotting opportunities, his goal efficiency and threat remain substantially low at 14.3% and 31.4% respectively, marking his scoring ability as his weakest link. His progressive passing also seems to be subpar at 34.3%, indicating his passing as a potential area of significant improvement. Also notably, Storm struggles with retaining the ball under pressure, with a dispossessed per 90 percentile of merely 14.7%. His lower percentage in successful dribbles per 90 at 32.35% implies room for development in his ball handling skills. Hence, while Nikola Storm's dynamic performance makes him an exceptional playmaker, his limited scoring potential and issues with possession vis-à-vis pressure tend to hold him back from becoming truly world-class. His strength definitely lies in exploiting the left wing and creating opportunities, and if he could better his finishing skills and patch up his issues with ball handling, Storm indeed has the chance to be an even more formidable presence on the field.
