Santiago Giménez, the young Mexican forward, has taken the Eredivisie by storm this past season while donning the Feyenoord jersey. At just 23 years old, Giménez's performance indicators speak volumes about his natural talent, particularly his astounding scoring ability. His goals per 90 percentile of 96.3% unequivocally illustrates his proficiency at finding the back of the net. Complementing this is an equal percentile for shots per 90, evidence of his active role in Feyenoord's attacking play. Progressive carrying and goal threat both register at an impressive 89.3%. The former indicating his ability to carry the game forward and the latter his perpetual danger to opposing defenses.
However, even the most glowing talents have their blemishes. Giménez's pass accuracy per 90 limps behind at 14.81%, revealing a clear area for improvement. Similarly, his ball retention leaves much to be desired, standing at a mere 25%. Yet his xG per 90 and xA per 90 shine at 96.3% and 81.48% respectively, suggesting his significant contributions to creating scoring opportunities.
Despite room for development, Giménez's distinct strengths far outshine his weaknesses. His rise as an extraordinary young striker continues to elevate Feyenoord's play, making him a firm favourite amongst their loyal supporters. With his raw talent and proven scoring ability, Santiago Giménez is a player worth keeping an eye on.
