Pablo Fornals
29-Year-Old
Betis
La Liga
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Fornals primarily operated as a defensive midfielder last season but still managed some attacking creativity, with only Isco and Giovani Lo Celso creating more chances among Betis' returning players last season. Fornals logged nearly 2,000 league minutes, a nice jump from his first season with Betis. While that suggests a fairly stable role, Betis' potential Europa League run could lead to more rotation in 2025/26, which is a worry for fantasy purposes. Given his defensive role, even a minimal set-piece role isn't going to make him a constant fantasy option. Still, the minutes will be there and despite the lack of goals last season, he can operate in a more forward role, so there will be matches throughout the season in which he holds more value.
Scores vs. Levante
Fornals scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal), eight crosses (three accurate) and six corners in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Levante.
ANALYSIS
Fornals scored the equalizer late in the second half with a header from close range following a perfect cross from Ez Abde. Fornals' value in fantasy decreases a bit in central midfield, but he pushes forward enough to be a low-cost option in several formats. He's locked into a starting role for Betis for the time being.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Sevilla keen on him
Sevilla are interested in completing a move for Fornals, according to Spanish outlet Diario AS.
ANALYSIS
Sevilla have decent depth in central midfield in Joan Jordan, Ivan Rakitic, Fernando and Nemanja Gudelj, who is playing as a center-back of late, but they would certainly welcome a more creative midfielder. Fornals is keen on moving back to Spain after spending several years in the Premier League.
