2025 Fantasy Outlook
Rioja made the switch to Valencia last season and immediately took over the starting job on the right wing. He played in 36 matches (33 starts) and nearly topped 3,000 minutes, as his durability remains a key quality. He was just as productive as he had been with Alaves, scoring five times and adding three assists from 30 shots and 35 chances created. With a split of set pieces, he has a decent floor every match, though he's never been a high-volume goalscorer. He's a known commodity at this point and his numbers shouldn't stray much in the 2025/26 campaign.
Logs assist in win
F/MValencia
February 17, 2026
Rioja made and assist, created two chances and sent in six crosses (one accurate) during Sunday's 2-0 win over Levante.
ANALYSIS
Rioja brought a lot of activity from the flank with his biggest highlight being the assist for Largie Ramazani to open the scoring midway through the second frame. That's now one goal and one assist over the last three starts for the attacker, who's starting to heat up again in a campaign full of ups and downs.
