Piotr Zieliński Scout Report

In our latest scout report, we spotlight Piotr Zieliński, the commanding central midfielder for Napoli in Serie A. At 29 years of age, Zieliński's season statistics reveal an impressive player profile that speaks volumes. His style of play manifests predominantly in two key areas: Chance Creation and Progressive Passing. Zieliński ranks in the top 90th and 86th percentiles respectively amongst his positional peers in the league. This points to a player whose forward-thinking style of play takes center stage, involved heavily in orchestrating Napoli's attacks. While his goal efficiency and goal threat aren't necessarily his strengths (percentile scores in the 50s and 30s respectively), Zieliński brings a fair amount of firepower to the pitch. He displays high productivity, as is evident from his 'xA per 90' and 'xG per 90' stats that float around the mid-80s percentile. However, it's not all sunshine and rainbows as Zieliński's playing style is blotted by a few weaknesses. His defensive contributions appear to lag, with poor percentile scores in ball recovery, interceptions, and duel win % indicating a weaker hold in defensive confrontations. His propensity to commit fouls, demonstrated by a mere 8.26% percentile ranking in fouls committed, raises concerns about his defensive discipline. Zieliński's player activity reveals he is most effective in the midfield and attacking third, befitting his strengths in chance creation and progressive passing. His minimal presence in the defensive penalty area highlights his attacking inclination, reinforcing that his contribution primarily lies ahead of the halfway line. In conclusion, Zieliński's ability to create scoring opportunities and his forward-passing prowess place him as a potent attacking threat in Serie A midfields. However, he needs to work on improving his defensive skills and discipline to become a more well-rounded central midfielder.
