Sam Greenwood Scout Report

Sam Greenwood's versatility across the pitch is evident, as he seamlessly transitions from his primary role as a left winger to stints in central midfield and striker positions. At just 22, his performances for Preston in the Championship illustrate a player with significant potential, particularly in chance creation, where he ranks impressively high among his peers. His ability to conjure opportunities is reflected in his outstanding xA per 90 minutes, suggesting a knack for incisive playmaking. However, his ball retention poses a significant concern, considerably falling short at the lower end of the spectrum. This inefficiency may be linked to his less-than-stellar pass accuracy and relatively low progressive carrying, hinting at occasional struggles to maintain possession and regain team momentum. Despite these drawbacks, Greenwood's goal contribution remains notable, with commendable goal efficiency and goal threat figures, indicating a directness in attack that compensates for his lack of touches. His aptitude in progressive passing further underscores his effectiveness in driving the team's offence forward. This scout report highlights Greenwood as a promising talent with room for refinement, particularly in honing his decision-making under pressure and improving his dribbling prowess to elevate his overall impact.
