Unai García Scout Report
Unai García, the 32-year-old center back for Osasuna, displays a style of play that does contain some contradictions, which makes for fascinating scouting. While he is a bastion of goal efficiency, his goal threat has been fairly weak, underlining his role as a traditional defender rather than one who ventures into the front lines. Playing diligently in the heart of defense, García shows remarkable poise in his interception game.
However, the same cannot be said for his ball retention and recovery capabilities that are alarmingly low. His remarkably low duels win percentages, including aerial duels, also marks a significant weakness in his game. A suspect pass accuracy also casts doubt on his ball-distribution capabilities.
On an illustrious flip side, García's scoring rate is phenomenally high for a center back, a testament to his potency in front of the goal. His dynamic game style is mirrored more in his defensive to midfield play than in the attacking third, both in possession and ball recovery. His penetrative threat is again evidenced by his ultra-high goals per 90 minutes stats.
However, one area of concern is his propensity to invite disciplinary action, with his yellows hitting the roof. Even his fouls committed are among the highest, pointing to a recklessness in his game that could hurt the team at vital moments.
García's scout report presents him as a resilient defender with a knack for score-lines, but he seems to grapple with ball control and discipline issues. His unique and rather paradoxical style of play is a combination of rock-solid defending with a surprising goal threat, marred notably by an overzealous tackle instinct and lackluster ball handling.
