2025 Fantasy Outlook
After inking a deal through 2026 with a player option for 2027, Wagner had another productive season in Philadelphia. Despite the team's overall struggles, he had his best individual season, with 10 assists and a goal. His 5.17 shot-creating actions per 90 is in the 99th percentile globally for full-backs, which says it all about his role. Wagner will again be one of the best defenders in MLS in 2025, as long as a move back to Europe isn't in the works.
Scores, assists versus Chicago
Wagner scored one goal and assisted once from two shots and two chances created in Saturday's 4-0 win over Chicago Fire.
ANALYSIS
Wagner scored his second goal in the season in the 64th minute to double Philadelphia's lead. The left-back later logged his ninth assist in 2025 for the club as well. He also led his side in crosses as usual during the match.
