2025 Fantasy Outlook
Balde made 32 league appearances (26 starts) and recorded four assists while helping the team keep four clean sheets in 2024/25. He matched a career high with 67 crosses and set a new mark with 26 chances created in league play, showing clear growth in his attacking output. His defensive awareness also improved steadily, confirming the qualities expected from him after a 2023/24 season hindered by injury. With more first-team experience behind him, Balde is expected to take another step in 2025/26. If he continues to develop, he could become one of the most productive full-backs in Europe and should again surpass 2,000 minutes easily.
Assists in one sided win
Balde had an assist while creating two chances during Tuesday's 6-1 win over Olympiacos.
ANALYSIS
Balde set up Marcus Rashford in the 74th minute assisting the sixth goal of the match while tying for the team-high in chances created. The assist was the first goal involvement this season for the fullback as he started his first Champions League match this year.
