THE CHALLENGE

  • Hector Bellerin, eyeing a strategic career move to bolster his chances of representing the Spanish National Team at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, sought to identify the ideal club environment conducive to his aspirations.

  • Recognizing the pivotal juncture in his career, he collaborated with his management team and Analytics FC to craft a data-driven strategy aimed at maximizing his potential for national team selection.

OUR APPROACH

  • Drawing upon extensive performance analytics and market intelligence, Analytics FC conducted a comprehensive assessment of potential club destinations tailored to Hector’s playing style and career objectives.

  • The analysis delved into various factors, including playing time opportunities, tactical fit, and the underlying data as to how national team squads are selected and evolve.

THE RESULT

  • The strategic approach yielded tangible outcomes for Bellerín’s career trajectory. By aligning his transfer aspirations with data-driven insights, he successfully secured a move to a Real Betis, winning the Spanish cup in his first season and reaching the knockout stages of the Europa League.

  • This strategic move significantly enhanced his prospects of representing Spain at the World Cup 2022 in Qatar but in the end, he just missed out. However, Bellerín’s consolation prize was a move to FC Barcelona in the summer of 2022.

“I don’t know what people will think, but the projection that was given to me by the big data was that Betis were going to have a very good year this season, so you can see how these systems work.”
