Athletic
La Liga
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Vivian delivered a full and commanding 2024/25 season, anchoring the back line with strength and composure. He showed consistent aerial dominance, excellent timing in challenges and rarely made mistakes in positioning. He also increased his impact in the final third with a career-high four goals to go with his second-straight season with 12 clean sheets. Entering 2025/26, Vivian is in prime form to continue as a defensive leader. Fairly healthy the last few years, Vivian is one of the more stable center-backs in the league with 10-plus clean sheets almost a lock for him.
Regular starter at center-back
Vivian started in 28 of his 32 league appearances, as well as in 10 of his 11 UEFA Europa League appearances, during the 2024/25 season. He racked up 147 clearances, 47 interceptions and 40 tackles in league play while adding four goals.
ANALYSIS
Athletic rarely made changes on the defensive line and Vivian was one of their most consistent performers regardless of whether he was playing alongside Yeray Alvarez (thigh) or Aitor Paredes. It's unclear whether Athletic will aim to bolster their defensive line over the summer transfer window, but Vivian should remain a regular starter for the side as long as he doesn't sign with a bigger club.
