Donyell Malen
27-Year-Old
Roma
Serie A
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Malen joined Villa midway through the 2024/25 season and showed glimpses of his explosive pace and ability to beat defenders. He didn't fully settle into the starting XI, but his upside remains clear in counter-attacking situations. With a full preseason to integrate, Malen could be a game changer in 2025/26. If he earns regular starts, he has the tools to hit double-digit goals and become a central figure in Villa's front three. His direct style and ability to stretch defenses gives them a different dimension in attack compared to their other forwards.
Delivers one assist
Malen assisted once to go with four shots (two on goal) and one chance created in Monday's 4-0 victory over Fiorentina.
ANALYSIS
Malen played a decisive creative role in Monday's 4-0 win over Fiorentina, delivering the dinked cross in the second half that Nicolo Pisilli headed home to make it 4-0, capping a strong individual performance despite twice being denied by the crossbar with deflected efforts. Malen has now scored 11 Serie A goals and registered two assists since joining in January, leading his team's scoring charts in the second half of the season and emerging as a key attacking addition from the winter transfer window.
