Boulaye Dia | Scout Report

Analysis & Style of play

Boulaye Dia, born in Oyonax, France, represents the Senegal national team. He is a very complete striker, with a great technical level, tactical understanding to find the spaces and a physique that, without being very tall, allows him to stand out in all aspects.

He likes a lot to associate with his teammates, having a very high success rate in passing. Sometimes he tends to keep possession longer than necessary, losing balls, but when he has to execute the pass or protect the ball, he does it correctly.

He attacks the spaces very well, especially the back of the defensive line. He has a very quick turn, both with and without the ball, which causes defenders to give him more space in his movements. In aerial balls he is a good header and fights very well in duels.

It must be said that he is a player who tends to fall to the wings, especially in counterattacks, having also played as a striker, as a right winger. Due to his characteristics, the higher the technical level of his teammates, the more he stands out with the ball.

He needs to improve his finishing, although he is capable of generating good shooting situations, when he is in more complicated positions it is rare to see him score.
