While striker Joshua Zirkzee, who went on to be crowned Serie A Best Young Player for the 2023/24 season, left Italy to join Manchester United, one of the other leading young talents has made a move to Serie A royalty in Roma.
Matías Soulé recently joined Daniele De Rossi’s Roma from fellow Italian giants Juventus, but the Argentine spent last season on loan at Frosinone – and he utilised that loan period excellently, showing Italy’s big clubs just what he is capable of.
Frosinone were eventually relegated to Serie B, but that did not stop Soulé putting on a show, contributing 11 goals and three assists in Serie A.
His explosive attacking abilities saw him rank high for several key metrics in comparison to U21 Serie A players – probably a huge attraction for Roma, who reportedly faced competition from English and Italian clubs for Soulé’s signature.
This Matias Soule tactical analysis and data-led, player-focused scout report will provide insight into Soulé’s abilities and his style, with the analysis reflecting on why the 21-year-old could be a good match for Roma’s tactics.
Matías Soulé Player Overview
We mentioned that Soulé ranked high in several metrics in comparison to U21 players in Serie A, but the same can be said for his statistics in comparison to Serie A RWs of all ages.
While his defensive engagement is low, especially when it comes to defensive duels, his involvement in possession and contributions in the final third could give Roma a different kind of edge in attack in the 2024/25 campaign.
