Episode 53: Nikos Overheul, formerly Vancouver Whitecaps, Statsbomb, Brentford FC
06 Mar 2025
Nikos Overheul is an experienced football scouting and strategy professional who has spent time working with various clubs around the world. Nikos was actually involved with Brentford FC in the early days of their data revolution and since then, spent time with Statsbomb, and Vancouver Whitecaps in the MLS. As well as this, Nikos has also operated as a consultant, aiding teams in their recruitment and alignment towards longer term goals. In this conversation I ask Nikos about some of the intricacies that come with working in the MLS, how he thinks about risk and reward, and I pitch him a hypothetical job to try to better understand Nikos’ thought process when working with a new club.
