In this scout report on Wolfsburg's centre back Sebastiaan Bornauw, the player stats reveal a robust aerial presence—he's dominant in the air with an impressive win rate in aerial duels, which showcases his primary defensive strength. However, while his aerial prowess is notable, Bornauw's overall duelling percentage falls short, pointing to potential challenges in one-on-one situations on the ground. His style of play leans heavily on defensive duties within his own third yet doesn't significantly impact offensive phases or ball progression. This is underscored by his low ranks in progressive passing and carrying, which suggest a more traditional, risk-averse approach to his playing style. Bornauw's limited touch involvement also indicates a tendency to act as more of a reactive defender rather than an initiator of play, relying on core defensive basics. Although his interceptions are moderate, his ball retention and recovery metrics suggest areas for potential growth in defensive adaptability and anticipation. Improving these facets could elevate his contribution to Wolfsburg’s defensive solidity and possession play.
