Injury Suspension
Est. Return 2/1/2026
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.
Set for suspension
Gaya will serve a one-match ban due to an accumulation of five yellow cards in La Liga.
ANALYSIS
Gaya accumulated five yellow cards in La Liga and will be suspended for the clash against Espanyol on Saturday. His absence will impact the starting squad since he has been a regular starter at left-back for Valencia, with Jesus Vazquez likely taking his spot in the lineup during his absence.

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.
