Selim Amallah Scout Report
Selim Amallah, a 27-year-old Morocco international plying his trade for Valencia in La Liga, has carved out a unique niche as an attacking midfielder with the versatility to operate on the left or even upfront. His presence in the final third is compelling, as evidenced by his robust ability to create chances that place him well up in the echelon of creative midfielders. His skill in turning defenses inside out with consistently successful dribbles is nothing short of stellar.
There are, however, areas which demand improvement. Despite his commendable ball-creating exploits, his lack of influence in progressing the ball forward, passing-wise, is a glaring weakness, placing him towards the bottom of the pile. His ability to recover the ball and ball retention is also significantly modest at best. Additionally, while his remarkable intensity is hard to ignore, it comes at the cost of committing an array of fouls - a trait that often invites disciplinary actions to him.
Perhaps one of his most unexpected strengths is his capacity to intercept the ball - a qualitative characteristic more associated with defensive midfielders. Nevertheless, his goal threat or scoring consistency isn't as significant as copious successful attacking midfielders in the league. His ball touches are also far from impressive, indicating a need to involve himself further in the gameplay.
Amallah operates predominantly in the midfield third, while his ventures into the attacking third are equally substantial. The defensive third, however, witnesses minimal involvement from the Moroccan - indicative of his offensive instincts. Undoubtedly, he's a mercurial talent with breathtaking flair but needs honing in certain areas to realize his full potential.
