Kyle Solomon

Football Performance Analyst
Johannesburg

Summary

Before transitioning into professional football in South Africa, I worked at a football data company known initially as Amisco, which later became Prozone and eventually STATS. From December 2008 to October 2017, I led the Football Production Department. This role provided me with a deep understanding of football data and how to interpret, contextualize, and extract value from it. It also laid the foundation for my expertise in video analysis, enabling me to identify trends and patterns within the game.

Over the years, I have gained extensive experience as a Football Analyst, working at the highest levels of competition. My career has taken me across North Africa and several countries in the Middle East, where I have consistently delivered high-quality analytical work under pressure. These diverse experiences have significantly contributed to my professional growth and broadened my perspective within the game.
