Miha Zajc Scout Report

Miha Zajc, the Slovenian central midfielder currently strutting his stuff at Fenerbahce, has an array of intriguing attributes that are worth noting according to his scout report. Zajc is a workhorse in the midfield, demonstrating neither superiority nor inadequacy with his ability to recover and retain the ball - both stats dwelling around the average threshold. He poses a goal threat, ranking within the top third of his peers – his goal efficient nature extending beyond the 70th percentile. However, he lacks in progressive carrying, falling disappointingly within the bottom 5% of all midfielders. A silence envelopes his assisting abilities, with his assists per 90 sitting just above a meager 17%, but he makes a deafening statement with a stunning pass accuracy of a little over 93% that is sure to strike envy among many of his contemporaries. He’s drawn notable attention for his impressive goal threat per 90 minutes performance - sitting high up in the 90th percentile range. Backing his attacking proclivities, Zajc maintains a solid track record with shots per 90, sitting firmly in the upper echelons of the league. Defensively, he falls just under the norm when it comes to aerial duels (64.36%) but struggles greatly with overall duel win percentage (35.11%), which is a cause for concern. Paying attention to his rather high fouls committed and yellow cards would also serve him well. Despite being a player who isn't afraid to engage defensively, his intercepting numbers and recoveries could stand a boost. Overall, Zajc's style of play offers an engaging blend of goal threats and stellar pass work, yet his defensive aspects and progressive carrying need constructive consideration.
