2025 Fantasy Outlook
Sancet enjoyed another productive campaign in 2024/25, contributing 15 goals and consistently driving play from the attacking midfield. He showed growth in his decision making and remained involved in every phase of the Athletic attack. Heading into 2025/26, Sancet looks ready to take on an even greater creative burden. If his final ball sharpens and injuries stay away, he could be headed for an even better season with 20 goal contributions in play, assuming he can assist more than the one he had last season.
Suffers hamstring injury
Sancet scored one goal before being forced off in the 50th minute of Wednesday's 3-2 loss against Sporting CP due to a hamstring injury that makes him a doubt for Sunday's derby against Real Sociedad, coach Ernesto Valverde confirmed in a press conference, according to Unai Valverde from Mundo Deportivo. "I don't know exactly what it feels like. I asked him, and he said he felt something. I hope it's nothing serious."
ANALYSIS
Sancet has struggled to keep himself fit over the past several seasons with Athletic Club and suffered another injury in Wednesday's defeat against Sporting CP. The playmaker scored a goal before leaving the pitch in the 50th minute due to a hamstring injury, which makes him a major doubt for Sunday's derby against Real Sociedad. This is a blow for Bilbao since Sancet is an undisputed starter in the frontline when fit, and if he has to miss the game, a change will need to be made in the starting XI, with Robert Navarro likely to take a starting role in attacking midfield and Alex Berenguer expected to play on the right wing.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Newcastle United want him
Newcastle United have been keeping close tabs on Sancet, according to Mundo Deportivo.
ANALYSIS
Sancet has been turning heads with his play for Athletic Club since the 2023/24 season, but he appears to have taken a significant step forward in the last 12 months, where he has improved to become one of the best attacking midfielders in LaLiga. Newcastle could use a creative presence in midfield next to Bruno Guimaraes and Sandro Tonali, so they're ready to make a move for him in the coming months.
