Tiago Dias Scout Report
Tiago Dias establishes his presence on the field as a right midfielder for Casa Pia AC in the Primeira Liga, often pulling double duty as a left winger. At 26, Dias is in his prime years, showing an interesting mix of strengths and weaknesses. His capacity for chance creation and progressive carrying stand out, reflecting his prowess in maneuvering the game’s dynamics, with respective percentiles of approximately 65% and 75%. His XA per 90 stat suggesting a high contribution to creating goal-scoring opportunities, being in the top 17% of his peer group.
However, his ball recovery and ball retention rates are remarkably low, falling into the bottom 10%, demonstrating he struggles regaining control and maintaining possession. His goal threat level and progressive passing similarly leave room for desired improvement, being in the bottom 20%.
Perhaps the most potent weapon in Dias' arsenal is his almost unrivaled ability to deliver successful crosses, with a startling 96.3% rating, among the best in the league. His nearly average goals per 90 and assists per 90 stats slightly tip in favour with 50.93% and 47.22%, suggesting a balanced, if not extraordinary, goal involvement.
Whilst his ball-handling skills could use improvement, indicated by lower percentile scores in successful dribbles and high dispossession rate, his goal efficiency sits comfortably at 80%, suggesting that once in a scoring position, Dias is highly likely to find the back of the net. This skill coupled with his exceptional crossing ability might make Dias a lethal asset for the right team and system. While his game can benefit from overall positional discipline and more consistency in retaining and recovering the ball, Tiago Dias' potential remains compelling.
