Jose Gaya
30-Year-Old
Valencia
La Liga
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Gaya is no longer at the peak of his career, but a lot of that has been due to injuries, as he's failed to surpass 2,000 minutes each of the last two seasons. As a positive, he started 18 of the final 20 league matches last season, so there is reason to believe those injuries are behind him, and he's still the top guy at left-back. His attacking output may not be the same as it was, but Gaya still has plenty of crosses in him. If all goes well, he'll surpass 25 starts and 100 crosses in 2025/26 with multiple assists added for a touch of upside.
Makes seven clearances at Rayo
Gaya registered one shot (zero on goal), six crosses (zero accurate) and seven clearances in Monday's 1-1 draw against Rayo Vallecano.
ANALYSIS
Gaya co-led Valencia in crosses during the road draw. The left-back also helped on defense with the second-most clearances. He logged 12 appearances (12 starts) in 2025-26 so far.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Barcelona keen to make move
Gaya has been linked with a move to Barcelona, according to SPORT.
ANALYSIS
New Barcelona manager Ronald Koeman has identified several spots to fill during the transfer market, and he wants to sign Gaya for the left-back spot. Jordi Alba remains one of the best full-backs in the world, but he doesn't have competition for the starting role and Gaya would be a good addition for that spot.
