Brazil is a country that exports talent to Europe every year where some become world idols. His latest star is already starting to dazzle thanks to his effectiveness within the area. We talk about Arthur Cabral and of his season with Basel. The 23-year-old Brazilian scored two of the three goals in Thursday’s win over Qarabag in the Conference League game.
His scoring figures continue to increase after those two goals that place him as second top scorer with five Conference League goals. Only Tammy Abraham has scored more than the Brazilian (six goals).
And is that his season in Switzerland has sparked interest from several European teams, including the Barcelona although the negotiations have cooled down. Another team that is interested in hiring you is the Newcastle. The striker has undoubtedly had a lot of fans in recent months and, in part, it is due to his performances on the pitch.
The Brazilian is one of the best scorers in all of Europe. Cabral is the top European scorer with Lewandowski and the top scorer in the Swiss league. This season, the forward has played 28 games in all competitions, achieving 27 goals and 8 assists. He scores a goal every 63 minutes and only needs 3.7 shots to achieve it. There is no doubt that we will soon see him make the jump to one of the five major European leagues.
Arthur Cabral is an area scorer, that type of player who seems to be disappearing, with a wide range of shots. With its 1.86 m. and his 86 kg. it goes well to the collision with the defense, that is to say, its power predominates more than its ability. He is not the typical Brazilian forward who is fine on dribbling. Quite the opposite. He is a footballer who finishes practically all the occasions that his team generates. In addition, he takes advantage of his height very well to head any ball as seen against Qarabag going to the ground to finish off with his head.
