Roberto Meraz

Roberto Meraz, at 25, is quietly proving himself a linchpin in Mazatlán’s midfield with a playing style that blends tenacity and finesse. His exceptional ball retention skills mark him as a player who can reliably anchor the midfield, ensuring smooth transitions and maintaining control under pressure. While not a prolific chance creator, his ability to recover possession and his progressive carrying abilities mean he's adept at driving the play forward, often bypassing opponents with ease. Defensively, Meraz is quite competent, particularly in penalty area defending, showcasing a knack for critical interventions in high-stakes situations. However, his one-on-one defending could use some refinement, suggesting room for growth in his defensive acumen. His balanced contribution across both defensive and progressive actions makes him a valuable asset, and one to watch in the upcoming seasons for any scout report.
