Alex Baena
24-Year-Old
Atlético Madrid
La Liga
Back in starting lineup Sunday
Baena (hamstring) is in the starting lineup to face Real Sociedad on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Baena was sidelined for one month due to his muscular issue but regained fitness ahead of the weekend matchup. His inclusion covers the absence of Nicolas Gonzalez (thigh) while leaving Thiago Almada among the substitutes. While it hasn't been the best season for Baena in terms of direct contributions with two goals and one assist in 14 appearances, he's capable of generating meaningful offensive stats either from a central or wide role.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Top target for Atletico Madrid
Atletico Madrid are keen on signing Baena this summer, according to Diario AS.
ANALYSIS
Baena has been one of the most prolific and consistent wingers in LaLiga over the last two seasons. Atletico Madrid could use an upgrade on the left side of their midfield to move Conor Gallagher to a more central role, so both parties could start negotiations as soon as the 2024/25 Liga season ends.
