Brais Mendez
28-Year-Old
Real Sociedad
La Liga
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Mendez struggled to get going last season and a broken foot late in the campaign only made matters worse. In addition to having fewer set pieces, he played a little deeper than prior seasons which led to just three goals and two assists. It was his worst La Liga return since 2019/20 with Celta Vigo. There are plenty of changes going on at Sociedad from manager to the players on the pitch, but there's reason to believe Mendez can have a bit of a bounceback. He may not score close to 10 goals, but if on the pitch, there's no question at least 10 goal contributions are still in play.
Start with goal and assist
Mendez scored one goal and assisted once from two shots and two chances created in Saturday's 3-2 win against Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Since late-September, Mendez has started regularly, with five of six Betis' games including his starts. But in October, the midfielder logged a relatively quiet month, with two accurate crosses and two chances created being the best he could muster. Mendez kick-started his November by doubling his ongoing season's G/A from two to four. He has two goals and two assists in 10 appearances this season, nearly half of one G/A across double-digit games.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could head to England soon
Tottenham are expected to make a move for Mendez, according to Spanish outlet Fichajes.
ANALYSIS
The Spurs are prepared to offer up to £35 million to sign the Real Sociedad and Spain midfielder during the January transfer window. The 28-year-old midfielder should be a key player for Sociedad if he stays healthy, and he's certainly capable of thriving in the Premier League.
