London, 22 July 2024, Scout Mission is delighted to announce that Standard Liège have signed up with Scout Mission to use our Scout Hub platform to enhance their player recruitment processes. The collaboration will see Scout Hub at the core of the club’s scouting operations for first team player and match reporting.
“Following a reorganisation of the scouting cell’s operations, we needed a platform that would enable us to centralise all the reports from our various scouts. After studying the market, we chose Scout Hub”, says Laurent D’Affnay, Head of Scouting at Standard Liège.
“The Scout Hub platform offers a centralised and intuitive solution for collecting, organising and analysing match reports, as well as individual reports on potential recruits,” said Laurent D’Affnay. “Thanks to its user friendly interface, we are able to record our observations and evaluations in an efficient manner, promoting transparent and fluid communication.”
The opportunity for Scout Mission to work together with Laurent and the rest of the Standard Liège scouting team has been invaluable, helping us understand their processes and gather feedback to further enhance the platform. Laurent had more good things to say: “After six months of collaboration, we can draw up a very positive initial assessment:
- Data centralisation: All match and individual reports are securely stored and accessible on the platform.
- Advanced analysis: We have advanced analysis tools to help us make decisions. Thanks to in-depth classification and evaluation of players according to our criteria, we can quickly identify their level and search for specific profiles, according to the club’s needs.
- Personalised follow-up: We closely monitor the progress of prospects and adapt our recruitment strategies to their performance.
- Management of local scouts: All local scouts living abroad are managed and supervised via the platform. They receive their assignments in the Scout Hub calendar and use the platform to submit their reports.
Scout Hub simplifies the administrative management of our reports and allows us to devote more time to player analysis.”
Scout Mission co-founder Adam Philbin added, “the experience of working with Standard Liège has been great and we look forward to continuing on the path together. We think Scout Hub can offer a ton of value to any football club, and are always excited to bring new clubs on board to boost their processes as well as continuously improving the platform with their feedback”.
