Nicolas Pepe

30-Year-Old Forward/MidfielderF/M
Villarreal
La Liga
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Pepe's career hasn't fully come to fruition since his Arsenal days, but he extended his contract with Villarreal this summer and that faith is good enough. He finished 2024/25 with three goals and six assists, taking on a small role of set pieces that helped him to 38 shots and 33 chances created. He started six of the final seven matches last season, being used up top or on the wing, showing his ability to play where needed. While consistent starts may not be there, when in the starting XI, Pepe often produces in some way on the attacking end.
Four shots in loss
F/MVillarreal
September 17, 2025
Pepe registered four shots (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and one corner in Tuesday's 1-0 loss against Tottenham Hotspur.
ANALYSIS
Pepe was his side's most threatening attacker in Tuesday's loss, but he could not find the target on his four shot attempts, althoguh some were very close. He also created two chances and one accurate cross on the attack. He figures to be perhaps Villarreal's most important attacker during this Champions League campaign.
