Rihito Yamamoto Scout Report
Scout report: Rihito Yamamoto, a dynamic midfield maestro currently plying his trade for Sint-Truiden in Pro League A, is one to watch. Predominantly operating as a central midfielder, the prodigious 22-year-old Japanese prospect has exhibited significant strengths and weaknesses during the 2023-2024 season.
Dominating in one-on-one ground situations, Yamamoto has demonstrated remarkable agility with an impressive 85.42% duel win ratio, a metric that speaks volumes of his assertiveness. His thrusts forward benefit significantly from his successful dribbling rates, standing in the upper echelons at 72.22%. His pass accuracy, at a median value, and the higher than average progressive passing percentile suggests a player who can dictate play in the middle of the park, often in the visual role of an attacking midfielder.
However, despite his attacking prowess, Yamamoto's game isn't without blemishes. His low ball recovery rate, one of the core components for a central midfielder, sits disconcertingly in the single-digits. Furthermore, his shot efficiency and chance creation numbers offer room for improvement, hinting that his contributions to goals may be less consistent.
His style of play sees him ever-present in the midfield third, with a healthy presence in the attacking third. However, his defensive contributions could be enhanced considering the scant minutes spent in the defensive third and low recoveries.
Up-and-coming Yamamoto's scouting report clearly reflects a raw talent who, despite some kinks in his armor, has a lot to offer any side. To reach his true potential and harness goals and assists effectively, he'll need to focus on improving his defence and boosting his direct attack metrics.
