What makes you stand out?
What makes me stand out as a scout is my combination of football knowledge, a Sport Management background, and an interest in data-driven player analysis. I believe the strongest scouting decisions come from combining what you see on the pitch with objective data and a clear understanding of a player’s potential and fit within a team. I have also built a growing network within football clubs and the agency sector, which gives me a broader perspective on recruitment and player development. I am analytical, curious, and always looking to improve my ability to identify talent.
