Luis Rioja
31-Year-Old
Valencia
La Liga
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Rioja made the switch to Valencia last season and immediately took over the starting job on the right wing. He played in 36 matches (33 starts) and nearly topped 3,000 minutes, as his durability remains a key quality. He was just as productive as he had been with Alaves, scoring five times and adding three assists from 30 shots and 35 chances created. With a split of set pieces, he has a decent floor every match, though he's never been a high-volume goalscorer. He's a known commodity at this point and his numbers shouldn't stray much in the 2025/26 campaign.

Sets up opener
Rioja assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), four crosses (two accurate) and one corner in Tuesday's 2-1 defeat to Oviedo.
ANALYSIS
Rioja set up Arnaut Danjuma for the opener in the fourth minute. Rioja created three chances and also contributed defensively with three interceptions, two tackles and a clearance. He has now assisted thrice in the last five games.
