OUT

Est. Return 3/4/2026
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Costas played in 31 matches during the 2024/25 season, starting regularly in central defense and chipping in with one goal and one assist. He was a consistent presence throughout the campaign and played a key role in Oviedo's defensive success. His leadership and reliability, with over 2,500 minutes played, were important down the stretch. If he maintains that level in 2025/26, Costas should remain one of the first names on the team sheet in the back line for the upcoming La Liga campaign.
Suffers muscular injury
Costas suffered a muscular injury during Monday's training session and will be ruled out for Sunday's clash against Athletic Club, according to La Voz de Asturias.
ANALYSIS
Costas was forced to cut Monday's training session short after picking up a muscle injury and has been ruled out for Sunday's clash against the Basques. The defender has been a locked-in starter and Oviedo's most heavily used player this season, so his absence is a significant hit that will force a change in the starting XI. The club will hope Eric Bailly is fit enough to step in at the back, though Dani Calvo is also a strong candidate to get the nod from the opening whistle.
