Thibo Somers Scout Report

Thibo Somers of Cercle Brugge presents a curious case as an attacking midfielder with multi-positional versatility. His 2024-2025 season scout report highlights a player who thrives in the attacking third, spending nearly half his time there. Somers's style of play is notably direct, with remarkable goal threat and efficiency, demonstrated by his exceptional expected goals (xG) per 90 metrics. Despite averaging fewer touches, he maintains impressive xA per 90 stats, suggesting he's a potent force with limited opportunities. While capable of creating chances, his ball retention is glaringly weak, clocking one of the lowest percentiles, which restricts his effectiveness in sustaining attacks. Furthermore, his passing accuracy ranks dismal, indicating potential areas of improvement in tactical discipline and decision-making under pressure. His moderate ball recovery and aerial duel success reflect an attacker contributing defensively, yet his insufficient duel win percentage hints at struggles in physical contests. Somers also dribbles modestly, highlighting the need to enhance his take-on ability when isolated. His proficiency in the attacking phase suggests that surrounding him with quality support could optimise his evident goal-scoring instincts. In the right tactical setup, harnessing his direct, goal-focused style could see Thibo Somers evolve into a pivotal attacking asset.
