Mohamed-Ali Cho has been a professional footballer since the 20/21 season with Angers and quickly entered the scouting priorities of the big European teams. In 21/22 he has usually played as a striker and he can also play on the wing. Probably hist main position will be right winger. Transferred for €12M to Real Sociedad in the summer of 2022, he is on the hunt to reach the elite.
Style of Play
Very skilled in dribbling, lethal change of pace, strong in duels and good use of the body to protect the ball while he runs. Games with spaces favor him thanks to his great stride. He’s a decent player with is week foot.
He’s a good player on a defensive level, being very active in pressing, with the speed that he possesses, he manages to recover the ball in very favorable situations to finish in a few touches.
Real Sociedad is an ideal context for him, he will touch more balls and improve his one-touch football. On the other hand, he will improve the team’s transitions.
He must improve in decision making, when he runs with the ball he must raise his head more often and understanding when to attack space.
Injuries
No serious injuries.
Projection
Being from 2004 he is a player in constant evolution, with elite physical conditions and who will have to improve at a tactical level. Real Sociedad seems like the right step in his career and if he continues to grow he will be one of the best under-23s in the world in 2-3 years.
