Ryan Mmaee, the 26-year-old Moroccan who currently fronts the attack for Stoke City in the Championship, proves himself to be a multifaceted player, showcasing a fine balance between defensive and offensive capabilities. His ball recovery and progressive carrying strengths place him notably above the median of his contemporaries, with percentile rankings of 63.49% and 60.31% respectively.
Mmaee's creativity should also not be understated, as he demonstrates an incredible capacity for chance creation, a metric where he stands among the top 10% of his league. His progressive passing prowess is also remarkable, ranked at the 87.30 percentile, making him a pivotal link in Stoke City's offense. His assist rate magnifies this aspect of his game, at an impressive 88.52 percentile.
However, while Mmaee is successful in creating opportunities, he appears less potent when it comes to capitalizing on them himself, with a startlingly low goal efficiency of just 4.76%. While his goal threat sits at a mere 41.27 percentile, he does demonstrate a commendable frequency with shots on goal per 90 minutes coming in at a robust 90.16 percentile.
In summary, it is clear that Mmaee is a forward whose traits lie more in chance creation and ball progression than in actual scoring. A potential area to improve could be his conversion rate, which would boost his overall goal efficiency, and transition him from a strong supportive forward to a lethal striker.
