Olivier Deman 

In this latest scout report, Olivier Deman emerges as a robust presence in Antwerp's defensive line, showcasing a playing style that's both tenacious and surprisingly refined for a left-back. At 25, he's not only matured but seems to have honed his defensive acumen to impressive effect. His player stats reveal a knack for ball recovery and 1v1 defending, making him a formidable opponent for any attacker. Deman's ability to regain possession is a cornerstone of his game, yet it's his progressive carrying that adds a nuanced layer to his style of play, propelling the team forward with intent. While his chance creation and goal threat are more subdued, they're overshadowed by his defensive solidity and the reliability he offers in duels. However, there’s room for improvement in penalty area defending, where he seems less assured. Despite this, his blend of defensive grit and forward-thinking ball movement makes him a key asset for Antwerp.
