PAVEL ŠULC
Midfielder · Lyon · Ligue 1
“Late-running midfielder with a ruthless edge in the box.”
GoalPost verdict
GoalPost score (GPS)
GoalPost read
Šulc offers prime years in an attacking-midfield role, with his best recent spell at Plzen supporting real value. The holdback is simple: the league step and an unsettled starting status limit the price.

Analysis overview
P. Šulc is a box-to-box midfielder who travels well through the middle and arrives with purpose rather than flourish. He combines busy movement with a clinical final action, timing his runs to become a genuine goal threat from midfield. The read is a limited but direct player: he keeps the game honest, carries it forward, and looks most dangerous when he breaks into scoring areas.
