Vedat Muriqi Scout Report

Vedat Muriqi, the tough-nut Kosovo striker for Mallorca, has certainly proven himself as quite the formidable figure in the field. At age 30, he's demonstrated a robust physical game, which is attested by his high 86.67% aerial duel win percentage - opponents should think twice before challenging him in the air. He's also one of the few strikers who excel in defensive roles, boasting an admirable 86.95% for penalty area defending operations. However, Muriqi's ball retention and goal efficiency ratings suggest he struggles to hold onto possession and convert chances into goals, which is something of a concern. Additionally, as a Striker, his presence higher up the field and in the final third seems limited. His touches in the attacking third and the penalty area shows room for improvement. Featuring a duels win percentage of 85.56%, it's clear Muriqi is someone you'd want heralding your front line, offering a gritty performance each time. His pass accuracy and involvement in attack, though just over half, may not scream 'top-tier', but it demonstrates a reliable work-rate and the capacity to facilitate play. In a nutshell, Muriqi is a striker whose defensive prowess and aerial domination stand out, although his goal conversion and ball-retention could use some polish. His ability to frequently get on the ball and his performance in the midfield third commend him as a formidable talent, equipped with a unique blend of offensive and defensive abilities.
