Andrei Ratiu
27-Year-Old
Rayo Vallecano
La Liga
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Ratiu's contributions might not always appear in the stat sheet, but the Romanian was one of the most consistent right-backs in La Liga when looking outside of Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and FC Barcelona in 2024/25. Last season, he recorded two goals, three assists, 37 chances created and 77 crosses in 35 appearances (34 starts). Those numbers give him a solid floor in most formats, and a move higher up the pitch late in the campaign could be a boost going into 2025/26. His importance should only grow and he could be a sneaky late-round grab in fantasy drafts if he starts more matches in an attacking role.
Sets up opening goal
Ratiu had an assist while taking an off target shot, crossing three times inaccurately, creating two chances and making four tackles (winning all four) during Sunday's 2-0 win over Villarreal.
ANALYSIS
Ratiu set up Sergio Camello in the 28th minute assisting the opening goal of the match while finishing with the second most tackles and crosses on the team. The assist was the first since February for the fullback as he's combined for two shots, 10 crosses and eight tackles over his last three appearances.

Could head to Italy
Ratiu is close to completing a move to the Italian Serie A, according to Spanish outlet Union Rayo.
ANALYSIS
Ratiu was one of the standout players for Rayo Vallecano in the 2024/25 season, and it's not surprising to see the right-back getting interest from other clubs in Europe. Lazio and Roma are keen on him, though Villarreal could also re-sign him. Rayo aren't willing to let him leave unless any team pays the release clause.
