Igor Paixao
25-Year-Old
Marseille
Ligue 1
Sublime chip doubles lead
Paixao scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and five crosses (one accurate) in Friday's 3-1 victory over Metz.
ANALYSIS
Paixao doubled Marseille's lead in the 48th minute of Friday's 3-1 home win over Metz, latching onto Mason Greenwood's perfectly weighted through ball on the counter before lofting a silky right-footed chip over Pape Sy from the edge of the box in what stood out as one of the best goals of the Ligue 1 weekend. After a quiet first half, he flipped the switch in the second period, constantly stretching the defense with his runs and delivery while finishing with a goal and five crosses. Paixao is now up to six goals and five assists in 26 Ligue 1 appearances this season, cementing himself as one of the few consistent bright spots in a frustrating campaign for the Phoceens.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could head to Bournemouth
Bournemouth are being linked with a move for Igor Paixao, according to Fraser Fletcher of TeamTalk.
ANALYSIS
It wouldn't be surprising if Bournemouth need to sign at least one winger this summer, as the likes of Justin Kluivert and Antoine Semenyo are being linked with moves away from the Cherries. Igor Paixao is one of the team's top targets, and the Feyenoord star is likely to be a highly-targeted player due to his recent displays both in the Eredivisie and the UEFA Champions League.
