Luca Pfeiffer Scout Report

Luca Pfeiffer, aged 27, performing in the Bundesliga for SV Darmstadt, is an intriguing forward to analyze. His robust credentials as a striker are highlighted by a strong ball retention rate, coming in at 84% (percentile). This, coupled with his admirable one vs one defending at 78% and penalty area defending at 66%, paints a picture of an emotionally resilient forward who doesn't shy away from challenging defensive work. His effectiveness in the air and duel wins are also remarkably high, ranking him among the top echelons in these categories. However, Pfeiffer's chance creation and goal threat statistics paint a less flattering image, with him languishing at the lower end of the spectrum at 26% in each. He seems to be a player that prefers operating from deeper positions, as indicated by his percentile rankings in touches in defensive and midfield thirds, providing some context to his lower attacking third touches and goal efficiency. Pfeiffer's style makes him a unique forward who straddles the divide between an archetype target-man and a playmaking striker. His team could benefit from capitalising on his strength in ball recovery and progressive passing while working on enhancing his penetrative presence in the final third.
