What’s the role of the Chief Scout and how do they develop the scouting department?

Part 1: What’s the role of the Chief Scout and how do they develop the scouting department?

How do League 2 and 3 teams typically recruit and evaluate players?

  • Utilizing contacts/relationships from around the world.
  • Outsource companies.
  • How to find information about players online using the internet.
  • Watching videos.
  • Travel to scout and watch the player physically (if possible).
  • Communicating and interviewing former coaches and/or interviewing with the player.

What clubs look for when recruiting and evaluating players:

  • Individual details (for example name, also known as, date of birth, place of birth, nationality, and height).
  • Full career domestic and international playing statistics, plus a breakdown of every game he has played within the past twelve months.
  • Contract expiry date.
  • Name of agent or agencies.
  • Information we hold on each player, for example: attitude to training, family, previous transfer problems, etc.
  • Player injuries and personal issues.
