André Silva Scout Report
André Silva, the Portuguese frontman currently leading the lines at Real Sociedad, exhibits typical marksman qualities mastered by experienced strikers who have learned the art of footballing balance. Strongly comfortable in ball retention ranking in the 52nd percentile, he possesses an uncanny ability to hold and distribute the ball, thus providing a useful outlet for his team. A natural in and around the penalty box, Silva's goal threat and efficiency hover positively above the 43rd percentile, indicating his penchant for goal-scoring. He's a consistent force in the air, boasting a more-than-decent 51.11% winning rate in aerial duels.
However, Silva's directly offensive prowess can be drawn into question due to his rather low chance creation and progressive passing percentiles, both resting under 11%. His defensive efforts might be considered insufficient, but as a forward, this hardly turns heads. Silva's milieu is predominantly the attacking third, owning 73.33% of his touches in this area. At age 28, Silva is in the prime of his career and though he may not be perfect, he's very much a potent force that any La Liga defence would do well to keep an eye on.
