His mathematical background paired with his passion for football has enabled Dr. Sumpter to consult for clubs and countries like Hammersby, Barcelona and England. Here, we will discuss the different metrics used to analyse football, how professional clubs are embracing data science and what it takes to make it as a football analyst.
