Ruben Loftus-Cheek Scout Report

Ruben Loftus-Cheek's move to Milan has highlighted his robust style of play, thriving primarily as an attacking midfielder with defensive versatility. In the 2024-2025 Serie A season, his ball retention and progressive carrying stand out—crucial for a player distributing from midfield, with statistics indicating him as a top performer in these areas. His ability to hold and carry the ball enhances Milan's transitions, yet his low goal threat and goal efficiency expose a sharp drop-off when it comes to converting opportunities. While his contribution to chance creation shows promise, a relatively low assists per 90 underscores a need for improvement in the final third execution. Nevertheless, Loftus-Cheek dominates in duels, boasting one of the highest win rates in aerial battles which bolsters defensive contributions unexpectedly for an attacking midfielder. His touches per match suggest he's not frequently in possession, hinted by limited activity in the final third, suggesting a more economical role in Milan's midfield setup. Overall, this scout report unveils a player who's a maestro in ball movement and control, but one who remains an enigma near goal—an intriguing balance for Stefano Pioli as the season progresses.
