Samuel Gigot Scout Report
Our scout report highlights Samuel Gigot—a linchpin in the heart of Marseille's defence. Now 30 and seasoned by years in the Ligue 1 trench, Gigot seems to have honed his ball retention skills and his ability to win duels—scoring remarkably high, even for a player of his calibre. Astounding ratings in both aerial duels and overall duel win percentages put him among the elite, a testament to his physical prowess and impeccable timing.
While he might not be a magnet for the ball—given a moderate number of touches, he proved most effective in his defensive responsibilities. His player activity and possession area stats reveal a player thriving at proactive defending, a bedrock at the back but also sparking transition plays.
However, all is not quite rosy for the Frenchman. His progressive passing seems to be an Achilles heel, with a woefully low percentile. A dearth of forward-thinking passes could hamper building from the back or launching counter-attacks—a hint of a more old-school defender in his style of play. His yellow card tally, significantly higher than his peers, could indicate a disciplinary issue.
In the final analysis, Gigot stands as a formidable traditional defender with a sharp winning edge and a great ability for creating chances. Yet, the player stats reveal potential growth areas for him—proactive discipline, and progressive passing.
