Nampalys Mendy Scout Report

In the heart of Lens' midfield, Nampalys Mendy is the driving force that strings together the side's play, often seen orchestrating from the midfield third where he spends two-thirds of his game time. A scout report would underline his sublime duel winning percentage as consistently outstanding in Ligue 1 - he ranks among the absolute elite, stopping opponents in their tracks with his ferocious tackling and effective recovery game. A look at Mendy's player stats reveals that his good vision dovetails with his impressive passing skills, as is indicated by a high percentile ranking for progressive passing; this ultimately makes him the architect of Lens' most incisive attacks. Moreover, he is efficient in front of goal, given his better-than-average goal efficiency percentile within the league. However, as the snags in his game, Mendy's style of play does leave room for improvement in terms of his direct threat on goal, as both his goal threat and shots per 90 minute ratings are notably inferior relative to the majority of his rivals. Also, his relative lack of skill as a dribbler is a cause for concern. His imposing aura in aerial duels, coupled with his almost perfect duel win ratio, means he more than pulls his weight in physical contests, which often prove key to midfield battles. His intelligence and anticipation see him notch up an above average interception rate. Mendy shows off his finesse rather than teeth in the final third - he doesn't often venture into opposition penalty boxes. However, his low involvement in the attacking third doesn't restrict him from being a game-changer, as his contributions are primarily based on his penetrative passing from deeper positions. These traits make him a quintessential pivot for Lens, and a player to learn from for the aspiring midfield generals across the globe.
