Roman Yaremchuk, the 28-year-old Ukrainian striker for Valencia, has proven to be a pivotal presence in the attacking third for his team during the 2023-2024 La Liga season. Yaremchuk's striking prowess is highlighted by his top-tier goal threat rating, a testament to his predatory instincts inside the box. His one vs one defending and progressive passing skills are also impressive, marked at 82.6% and 69.6% respectively, giving away his multifaceted skills within his team's tactical setup.
Despite his proficiency at posing a goal threat, other aspects of Yaremchuk's game need to be improved upon. His subpar ball recovery, retention, and chance creation percentages indicate an inherent weakness when it comes to maintaining and distributing the ball effectively. His goal efficiency, with a significantly lower 13% percentile score, might be the cause of concern, reflecting his struggle to convert opportunities into tangible results at times.
His 60% xG (expected goals) indicates he's doing reasonably well at getting himself into scoring opportunities, though, interestingly, Yaremchuk seems more involved defensively than offensively, shown by his higher percentile of touches in the defensive penalty area. He appears to be a versatile forward, adaptive to the demands of the game with a tendency towards a direct attack.
His aerial duels win percentage and duel win percentage could also use some bolstering, sitting at 42.22% and 20% respectively. Yaremchuk shows promise though and with focused training, his overall performance could elevate further.
