Kerwin Vargas’s scout report for the 2024 MLS season paints him as a somewhat enigmatic left winger for Charlotte FC. At 23, he's shown glimpses of real potential, particularly in goal efficiency, where he stands out with an impressive statistical edge over most of his peers. Vargas’s goal threat, though not as high, indicates a player who can surprise defences but perhaps lacks consistency in this area. His playing style doesn’t rely heavily on chance creation, which is notably low, suggesting a need for development in creating opportunities for his team. Conversely, he's adept at ball recovery and retention, which suggests that when Vargas is switched on, he provides solid defensive support alongside his offensive duties.
His direct nature is further underscored by his relatively limited involvement in build-up play — reflected in his low touches and assists -- though when involved, he makes effective contributions, maintaining commendable pass accuracy. Vargas’s progressive passing is a brighter aspect of his game, hinting at an ability to propel the team forward once he's involved. However, improvements in his dribbling ability would enhance his impact significantly on the flanks. Ultimately, while Vargas showcases key strengths, particularly in efficient execution of scoring chances, he also has clear areas for growth, especially in creativity and consistency.
