Javi Puado

Espanyol
La Liga
OUT
Injury Knee
Est. Return 10/1/2026
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Puado was crucial for Espanyol during the 2024/25 campaign, scoring 12 times and adding four assists on 71 shots. He mostly played off the left wing to close the campaign, though he opened as a striker. He led the team by 10 goal contributions after notching 14 combined across the prior two seasons. Reaching the same numbers may be difficult in 2025/26, but he's appeared in at least 30 matches each of the last three seasons and figures to be plenty involved again with at least 10 goal involvements a good projection.
Undergoes successful surgery
F/MEspanyol
OUT
January 15, 2026
Puado (knee) underwent a successful surgery on Thursday and will now begin his recovery, the club announced.
ANALYSIS
Puado suffered a torn ACL during Sunday's draw against Levante and underwent successful surgery on Thursday to address the injury. The forward will miss the rest of the season and is likely to miss the start of the 2026/27 campaign with the Catalans. This is a significant blow for Espanyol, as they are enjoying a strong season and will be without their best player for several months. Kike is expected to see increased playing time in the frontline while he is out.
