Ilaix Moriba
23-Year-Old
Celta Vigo
La Liga
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Moriba made 33 appearances in 2024/25 and gradually became more involved in midfield as the season progressed. He recorded one goal and one assist while providing physical presence in a box-to-box role, with brilliant defensive contributions that included 68 tackles (42 won), 14 interceptions, and 28 clearances, all career highs in league play. He also logged the second-highest number of minutes among midfielders, behind only the reliable Fran Beltran. His growing influence convinced the Celta Vigo board to extend his stay for the four next seasons, a sign of a constant role moving forward.
Chance created against Getafe
Ilaix Moriba recorded one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 0-0 draw versus Getafe. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 19th minute.
ANALYSIS
Moriba put in a strong effort in a match where Celta Vigo offered very little going forward and failed to score. He remains a key player for Celta Vigo and has now started the club's last five La Liga matches, recording 53 tackles on the season, a total that ranks among the highest for midfielders. Much of his value comes from his defensive work, which has played a major role in the team's recent clean sheets, but he will look to build on this foundation by contributing more in attack. Moriba's next fixture comes against Osasuna, a mid-table opponent that should provide an even matchup.
