Steven Berghuis Scout Report
Experienced right winger Steven Berghuis, has been exhibiting a formidable performance in the 2023-2024 campaign. At 32, the Dutch veteran continues to make a mark in Ajax with his stellar display of playmaking - his chance creation and progressive passing stats are in the elite 92% and 98% percentiles respectively, demonstrating the crucial role he plays in orchestrating Ajax's offense. His precision passing is reflected in his peer-leading 100% pass accuracy per 90 metric, along with impressive assist statistics - clocking an almost unmatched 96.77% shots per 90, highlighting his keen eye for opportunity.
Despite his age, Berghuis also exhibits above average ball recovery and retention skills, scoring 74% and 68% percentiles respectively, proving himself an asset in regaining and maintaining possession. His goal efficiency is an admirable 77%, but when delving into goal threat, he falls behind, indicated by a reasonable yet somewhat lackluster 42% placement. The area which perhaps lets Berghuis down is his progressive carrying statistic, languishing in the 19% percentile - indicating the player relies on his passing prowess over a forceful drive forward.
He may not be the most successful when it comes to dribbling – scoring a low 32.26% - but he compensates for this by delivering a high number of successful crosses (90.32%) into the box. Importantly, Berghuis has remained largely immune to dispossessions with a low dispossessed per 90 rate of 1.61%, demonstrating his ability to retain possession under pressure. Overall, while his age must be considered, Steven Berghuis has proven himself a pivotal asset to Ajax's attacking force in this season.
