Soualiho Meïté

AI Scouting Report

Meïté functions as a high-integrity circuit breaker, a player who prioritizes ball security and defensive positioning over the flashy verticality often expected of modern midfielders. His staggering 94.7% pass accuracy puts him in the league’s top 5%, but this isn't merely safe sideways passing; with 5.74 balls into the final third per 90, he is a progressive recycler rather than a static pivot. While his bottom-decile chance creation suggests a lack of imagination, the counterintuitive reality is that his 1.22 dribbles per 90—sitting in the top 30%—reveal a player who uses physical carries to bypass lines before handing off to more creative assets. He is a defensive menace in the air and a relentless presser, ranking in the top 10% for intensity, yet he remains a non-threat in the box with negligible shot volume.
