Matija Frigan Scout Report

Scout report on sharpshooter Matija Frigan, the young firecracker from Croatia, suggests a distinctive style of play, tinged with a mixture of proficiencies and deficiencies. He is seen as a striker for Westerlo in the Pro League A, where he has been a constant presence, racking up more than a 1000 minutes across the 2023-2024 season. Matija’s key strength lies in his finishing prowess, underscored by his superior goal efficiency and shots per 90 ranking, placing him above 63.64% and 66.67% of his fellow strikers respectively. His knack for hitting the target transpires to be a vital cog in Westerlo's attacking wheel. However, his stats also present a young player struggling to assert control on the match, largely suggested by a significantly low ball recovery and retention rate, a paltry percentile that barely rises over 3%. His immobilizing trait persists with his progressive carrying and passing, both recorded at 0%, which implies his inclination towards relying more on his positional play, much to his team's cost. Further, his lack of versatility to interchange or play across other positions is notable, potentially limiting his ability to adapt to varied tactical philosophies. Interestingly, Frigan's approach to direct attack shines through the stats in an unusual way. Despite his low touch percentile, his goal scoring and shot metrics remain impressive, suggesting a player who wastes no time in the face of goal. However, this greener is also racking up fouls at an alarming rate, way up in the 78.79% percentile, hinting towards a disciplinary issue that he should certainly address moving forward. In sum, while Matija Frigan's ability to slot the ball into the net often is laudable, his overall gameplay suggests room for growth, particularly in the areas of ball retention, progressive playing, and discipline on the field. Certainly, an agile predator in front of goal, but one still refining his hunting techniques.
