Cucho Hernandez
27-Year-Old
Betis
La Liga
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Hernandez arrived at Betis in January after starring for Columbus Crew in MLS. He wasn't as prolific in Spain but still produced five goals and one assist in 15 league appearances (14 starts). With a full preseason to acclimate, he's expected to lead the line in 2025/26. His per-90 stats of 3.37 shots, 0.86 on target and 1.10 chances created could rise as he gets more comfortable in La Liga. Even then, simply having more time on the pitch in addition to a full offseason with the club should lead to 10-plus goals in this attack.
Supersub role at World Cup
Hernandez has been named in Colombia's World Cup squad and is expected to play a decisive impact role off the bench throughout the tournament, providing manager Lorenzo with an explosive and unpredictable option to unlock defenses in the closing stages of matches.
ANALYSIS
Hernandez ends the season as Real Betis's top scorer with 15 goals and three assists across 40 appearances in all competitions, demonstrating his ability to be decisive and clinical at the highest level of European football in his first full La Liga campaign. Hernandez brings electric pace, physical strength and the ability to conjure moments of individual brilliance that make him one of the most dangerous impact substitutes in the entire tournament, capable of turning a game in an instant with a burst of pace or a moment of technique. Hernandez heads into the World Cup with the confidence of a player who knows exactly what he can offer and the determination to produce the decisive moment that could define Colombia's tournament.
