About Chance
Expert Analysis
Guilherme Torres | Prep Soccer Scout
Malilo was a constant threat to the Dynamo backline with his impressive skills and aggressiveness on the ball. His teammates looked for him very often when he was open on the right, where he tried to use his impressive ball control and quickness to create chances. Sensing a good opportunity to create from more of a central position, Malilo moved inside and was even more dangerous, setting up plays with one-touch and backheel passes that surprised the opponents. The forward was very good at dribbling in tight spaces, displayed excellent vision to connect passes and send through balls and also seemed to be a very good finisher from distance.

Read EvaluationJR Eskilson | Prep Soccer Scout
Malilo is a winger on the FC Cincinnati U15 MLS Next team. He has been part of US Soccer Talent ID Center events in the past. Malilo is a terrific player. He is a difference-maker for his club team. He is a vocal leader on the field and does put an emphasis on demanding more from his teammates. He leads by example though, and he usually provides those big-time plays during decisive moments in games. He has high upside as a winger because of his skill on the ball, but also he reads the game and anticipates the next play better than most of his peers. He’s smart about when he gambles to get forward and he creates those little advantages in those moments. He will need to improve defensively for the next level, but there is plenty of quality there to suggest he will be one to watch on the professional pathway in the near future.
