2025 Fantasy Outlook
Alvarez enjoyed an incredible first season with Los Colchoneros. The Argentinian forward notched 17 goals and four assists across 37 appearances (30 starts) in league play while also tallying 40 chances created and 50 corners taken. Even better, he didn't start taking corners until late November. Alvarez established himself as the go-to attacking weapon even though Alexander Sorloth was the leading scorer with 20 goals. Regardless of whether he plays alongside Antoine Griezmann or Sorloth, expect Alvarez to play a prominent role upfront with one of the highest ceilings in the league.
Won't play in finale
Alvarez (ankle) won't play in the season finale against Villarreal on Sunday, according to Mundo Deportivo.
ANALYSIS
Alvarez has been relieved of his duties ahead of the final match of the season, with the aim of being as healthy as possible for the start of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Alvarez ends the 2025/26 season with eight goals and four assists in 29 appearances (22 starts) in LaLiga. The striker's goal will be to be healthy for Argentina's World Cup opener against Algeria on June 16.
