Serginho - Viborg FF’s main creative player
Serginho (or Sérgio Andrade) is a 23-year-old Portuguese winger who plays for Viborg FF in the 3F Superliga (Danish top tier). This is his second season at the club and in Denmark. The 24/25 season is still in the beginning but, so far, Serginho has been performing at high level for his club (3 goals and 7 assists in 10 official matches).
The Portuguese winger preferably uses his right foot, and he can play in both wings despite seeming to be more efficient on the right. At Viborg, he has been playing exclusively as right winger since this season’s 3rd round and since then, his performance has increased substantially.
Serginho is a creative player with a very good technique for the 3F Superliga. He has good dribbling skills, ball control, acceleration, speed and agility that allow him to unbalance the opposition’s defence, create spaces and make him one of the best dribblers in the Danish top tier (6,98 dribbles per match and 56,9% success rate).
The Portuguese winger possesses a good first touch, vision, passing skills and awareness that are reflected in his importance to the playmaking and attacking momentum of Viborg (6 assists in 9 league matches; 76,9% pass accuracy; 84,2% accuracy in passes to the final third and 64,9% accuracy in passes to the penalty box).
Serginho is a decent decision maker, has decent positioning and has a good acceleration with ball which he uses to push the team forward (4,06 progressive runs per match). He also is a decent set piece taker.
The winger lacks commitment when defending and seems soft on approaching duels. He is weak in the air. As his stamina starts running low, he takes too long to go back in defence. The winger would benefit greatly from improving his stamina, determination and work rate. Despite having good creative and technical skills, Serginho sometimes overcomplicates or takes too long to release the ball.
In sum, Serginho is a technical and creative player who is more efficient on the right side of the attack. He is tactically disciplined and more suited for attacking tasks although he’s up to make high pressing often. Viborg’s right winger is a fast player with good dribbling skills, who enjoys having the ball. He has passing and crossing skills to assist or deliver well to his teammates. He’s a decent set piece taker (especially corners).
Serginho has developed very well since he moved to Denmark and, with 23 years of age, he still has room to develop. He has shown potential to play at a higher level.
