Quinn Sansone: A Complete Modern Midfielder Recognized at the National Level

Quinn Sansone represents the profile of the modern midfielder: intelligent, versatile, competitive, and capable of influencing the game in every phase.

Recently invited to the US Soccer Talent ID Centre, Quinn’s recognition at the national level reflects more than potential — it confirms consistent performance, tactical maturity, and a strong understanding of the game at a young age.

At CALB Soccer Performance & Intelligence Lab, we analyzed Quinn’s performances with a focus on decision-making, efficiency, and impact. Even across a limited sample of matches, her influence on the game was evident.

Tactical Intelligence and Defensive Impact

One of Quinn’s standout qualities is her ability to read the game. Averaging 6 ball recoveries per match, many through interceptions, she consistently positioned herself to anticipate play rather than react to it.

Recoveries in advanced areas allowed her team to transition quickly into attack, showing how defensive actions can directly generate offensive advantage. This spatial awareness and timing are key indicators of a midfielder with strong tactical intelligence.

Duels, Intensity, and Physical Presence

Quinn demonstrated a high competitive intensity, engaging in nearly 18 duels per game. Her success rate stood out, particularly in:

• Offensive duels: 61% success

• Aerial duels: 60% success

These numbers reflect a player who protects possession under pressure, competes confidently in 1v1 situations, and remains reliable in physically demanding moments.

Progressive Passing and Game Acceleration

In possession, Quinn combines composure with vertical intent. She averaged over 11 progressive passes per match, with an impressive 91% success rate, consistently breaking lines and accelerating the tempo of play.

Her overall pass completion rate of 93.5% highlights her ability to balance risk and control, connecting buildup play to the final third while maintaining efficiency.

Chance Creation and Offensive Contribution

Beyond structure and circulation, Quinn directly influenced attacking outcomes. Through assists, accurate crosses, and shots from distance, she demonstrated the ability to contribute to goal-scoring situations and dictate attacking rhythm.

This combination of creation and finishing ability reinforces her profile as a complete midfielder, capable of impacting matches beyond positional responsibilities.

A Complete Midfielder Profile

Even across just two matches, Quinn’s performance data and video analysis point to a well-rounded player:

• Defensive solidity

• Vertical and efficient distribution

• Confidence in duels and 1v1s

• Ability to create and finish chances

These qualities explain her invitation to the US Soccer Talent ID Centre and position her as a player aligned with the demands of the modern game.
