Investment-grade scouting intelligence from 50+ leagues worldwide. Curated recommendations backed by a verified financial track record — built for directors of football, chief executives, and serious investment desks.
Four pillars separate Global Scout from the database platforms clubs already subscribe to. We don't sell you data — we sell you conviction.
Scouting intelligence across 50+ leagues from the Norwegian Eliteserien to the Japanese J1 League — markets that sit outside every mainstream scouting network.
Every recommendation ships with an acquisition cost, projected value trajectory, comparable transfers, and a ROI projection — formatted for board rooms, not fan forums.
Every recommendation is auto-tracked against Transfermarkt from the moment of publication. Immutable timestamps, live profit/loss, nothing to edit after the fact.
International scouting intelligence for less than the weekly wage of a single Championship player. A £200/month subscription against a potential £30M signing.
The best-run football businesses in Europe have treated the transfer market as an asset class for a decade. The clubs below built internal infrastructure to do it. Global Scout delivers the same kind of global intelligence for a fraction of the spend.

Tactical assessment. Press-resistant eight with an elite first-line-breaking pass. Receives on the half-turn under pressure, rarely plays backwards when forwards is available, and has a clearly repeatable carry-and-release pattern that generates shot-creating actions inside the final third.
Strengths. Elite at breaking the first line with a forward pass — sits in the 91st percentile for progressive passes per 90 in the Primeira Liga cohort. Press-resistant in tight zones; body shape and first touch consistently set him up to escape rather than recycle. Coachable profile with visible tactical growth inside 18 months.
Weaknesses. Aerial duels are a clear limitation — not a profile to drop into a back-four at a possession-dominant side. Defensive recovery speed is average rather than elite; tactical positioning compensates but would be exposed in a transition-heavy league.
Level assessment. Best fit: 4-3-3 possession side with a defensive six covering aerial work. Poor fit: back three with wing-backs — the duels asked of him in transition would expose his recovery speed.
