Lucas Paqueta
27-Year-Old
West Ham United
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Paqueta had a year to forget across the board, managing just four goals without an assist in 2024/25. He still created 36 chances, so it's not that he wasn't getting involved in attacking moves, but finishing proved to be an issue throughout the team. Paqueta still shot the ball at a similar rate to previous years (41 times last season), but his role changed no matter the manager, and that led to some starts as a false none and others as a defensive midfielder. If used correctly in a team that has the talent to improve, Paqueta could get back to the 10 goal contributions he had two seasons ago.
Down year
Paqueta scored four times in 33 appearances (27 starts) in the Premier League.
ANALYSIS
Paqueta netted four goals, a massive downturn after producing 10 goal contributions last time out. The attacking midfielder was disappointing throughout the season and failed to really get anything done. It was an awful campaign also marred by off-the-pitch issues. Paqueta's future is uncertain but if he remains at West Ham he should be a consistent starter with some upside.
