See Full Verdict + Share Card →Vydra is the rare veteran attacker who still wins the ball like a midfielder and creates chances like a playmaker — a profile that defies his age and league level. Operating in the Chance Liga, he ranks in the top 5% for duel win rate and top 10% for key passes per 90, numbers that suggest a player doing far more than simply finishing moves. His shot volume — also top 5% — looks aggressive on the surface, but the counterintuitive reality is that his 0.58 goals per 90 actually undersells his creative contribution; he's generating chances for others at a rate most forwards in this league simply don't.
