Rubén Vargas is a left-footed wide midfielder or winger whose pace, directness, and ability to carry the ball in tight spaces made him one of FC Augsburg's most important players across four Bundesliga seasons. His move to Sevilla in 2024 represents a significant step up in ambition. For Switzerland, Vargas offers genuine width and the capacity to beat defenders one-on-one — a relatively rare commodity in a squad that tends toward the industrious and structured. His Swiss-Peruvian heritage adds to a richly diverse national team, and at 27 he is entering the peak years of what has been a steadily improving career.
