2025 Fantasy Outlook
Vassilev had a mediocre 2024 with St. Louis, though he maintained a solid role throughout. He's an everyday starter, only missing out and dropping to the bench a few times due to injury. His stats were similar to the 2023 season, registering three goals on 37 shots and four assists on 37 chances created, one more than in 2023 despite seven fewer appearances. He also recorded 99 crosses for the second season in a row, adding some value in that field. The question for Vassilev in 2025 will be if he can take a step forward and produce some real upside.
Returns in Concacaf
Vassilev (undisclosed) featured about 10 minutes in Wednesday's 5-0 win against Defence Force FC in the Concacaf Champions Cup, confirming he is back available for Philadelphia.
ANALYSIS
Vassilev had been working his way back from an injury picked up during Philadelphia's preseason, but he looks to have put it behind him, logging about 10 minutes in Wednesday's Concacaf Champions Cup win. That late cameo is a strong indicator that he's trending in the right direction from a fitness standpoint. It's a welcome development for Philly, given how central he was last season, making 34 appearances with 23 starts while punching in six goals and adding two assists.
