2025 Fantasy Outlook
Combining Murillo with Nikola Milenkovic, Nottingham Forest's central defense was a key part to their 2024/25 season. Murillo steadily improved in his second Premier League season and started all but two matches, playing through numerous minor ailments. He reached almost seven clearances per game to go with 11 clean sheets. He's less of a threat on sets than Milenkovic, which means he's unlikely to improve much on his two goals and zero assists, though there's no reason all of his numbers can't look fairly similar in the 2025/26 campaign.
Injury status unclear
Murillo reportedly missed training sessions before missing Thursday's Europa League clash against Braga, Sarah Clapson of the Nottingham Post reported Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Murillo is potentially dealing with an issue whose severity is unknown, so his availability could be a major concern for the team. The defender has played every minute of the last seven league contests, averaging 6.1 clearances and 1.1 interceptions over that span. His place could be covered by Morato if the injury forces him to miss upcoming matchups.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Top target for Red Devils?
Manchester United are interested in making a move for Murillo, according to The Daily Mail.
ANALYSIS
Manchester United are looking to sign a center-back in the summer, targeting a player who could be a long-term replacement for Harry Maguire and be on the same timeline as the likes of Leny Yoro and Matthijs De Ligt. Murillo fits all the boxes, but it won't be easy to sign him. Nottingham Forest aren't keen on parting ways with the Brazilian, and if they do, expect Barcelona to enter the race for the former Palmeiras star.
