Tanguy Nianzou Scout Report

Tanguy Nianzou, the young French centre-back representing Sevilla in La Liga, displays an intriguing style of play that's characterised by resolute defensive capabilities. At just 22, Nianzou has shown flashes of potential, particularly highlighted by his impeccable aerial prowess, winning every battle in the air, and a near-perfect record in duels. This makes him an intimidating presence for forwards. His ability to retain possession is commendable, showcasing a high pass accuracy, although his progressive passing remains an area for improvement, limiting his ability to instigate attacks from deep. Nianzou's defensive instincts are accentuated by a decent interception rate, yet his low ball recovery rate suggests he relies more on positional awareness than aggressive ball-winning. His involvement is primarily focused in the defensive third, underscoring his traditional defensive role. However, he'll need to work on his discipline; committing a high number of fouls per game could potentially leave his team vulnerable. All said, Nianzou's contributions to Sevilla's backline this season should not be underestimated, as he's become a vital pillar in their defensive setup.
