Jeong Woo-yeong Scout Report
Our scout report focuses on Jeong Woo-yeong, the 24-year-old prodigy plying his trade in the Bundesliga for VfB Stuttgart. Adorned like a jewel in the attacking midfield and right-wing positions, Jeong's style of play and player stats rightfully light him up as the promising future of Korean football.
Interestingly, Jeong is a bit of a rarity in the modern game. Despite his less than ideal ball recovery stats—humbled at single-digit percentiles which reveal a defensive weakness in his game, his offensive prowess more than offsets this downfall. He exhibits a nuanced blend of progressive carrying and threatening prowess with rankings that nearly touch the ceiling. His goal threat, progressive carrying, and goal efficiency are nothing short of exemplary, placing him among the Bundesliga's lethal attacking midfielders. All signs point to an innate ability to drive his team forward and generate goal-scoring opportunities—the perfect emblem for an attacking midfielder.
Passing, however, forms a chink in his otherwise formidable armor. His underwhelming progressive passing stats—lurking in the lower percentiles, suggests an area ripe for improvement. Yet, it seems this weakness hasn't hampered his scoring capabilities or his ability to enhance the performance of his teammates; his assists per 90 and goals per 90 stats soar into the higher percentiles, painting a portrait of a player who can deliver when it counts.
His vast presence in the midfield and attacking third combined with his energizing spikes in xG and xA per 90, suggest a player who thrives on attack. However, his low aerial duel wins and duel win percentages hint at potential challenges in physical battles, an aspect he may have to bolster as he matures.
At 24, Jeong Woo-yeong has already carved a niche for himself in Stuttgart and within the Bundesliga cosmos. His talent can be likened to a sword—often slicing through defences with precise goal threats and chance creations. Yet, like all swords, it can be honed to greater sharpness. With attention to his minor weaknesses, we may be looking at a future world-beater in the making.
