Victor Edvardsen, the 28-year-old Swedish striker from Go Ahead Eagles, certainly isn't your typical frontman based on his most recent season in the Eredivisie. Primarily, his low ball retention (14.29%) and goal efficiency (3.57%) percentiles raise alarms about his ability to comfortably dominate in his role. These numbers show that Edvardsen is struggling to keep possession and convert his scoring opportunities. However, his upside lies in his relatively high numbers in progressive actions, where he seems to shine with 60.71% and 64.29% percentiles in progressive carrying and passing respectively. This shows that Edvardsen is a forward-thinking player who's skilled in advancing the ball towards the goal. His xG per 90 at 66.67% also stands out, suggesting potential for improving his actual goal return with better finishing. In assessing Edvardsen, it's clear that while his strengths reside in his ability to move the ball forward, there is a pressing need to improve his finishing and ball retention for him to solidify his position as an indisputable striker.
