Vargas’s combination of pace and left-footed finishing makes him Switzerland’s most dangerous wide attacker. The move to Sevilla has hardened his game — the press is more intense in La Liga than at Augsburg — and he has become a regular goalscorer for both club and country. He is the cleanest match-up nightmare in the Swiss attack.
Strengths
- Cutting inside onto the right foot
- Set-piece taking
- Pace in transition
Recent form
Sevilla regular through 2025-26; double-digit goal involvements.
Often cited as Switzerland's most-improved player of the Yakin era — Yakin moved him from left wing to a wider left-eight role to better exploit his finishing.
