Oihan Sancet
26-Year-Old
Athletic
La Liga
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Sancet enjoyed another productive campaign in 2024/25, contributing 15 goals and consistently driving play from the attacking midfield. He showed growth in his decision making and remained involved in every phase of the Athletic attack. Heading into 2025/26, Sancet looks ready to take on an even greater creative burden. If his final ball sharpens and injuries stay away, he could be headed for an even better season with 20 goal contributions in play, assuming he can assist more than the one he had last season.
Back in preseason training
Sancet returned to preseason training with Athletic Bilbao after missing the end of the 2025-26 campaign due to a hamstring injury, according to the club.
ANALYSIS
Sancet appears to have recovered from the hamstring issue that sidelined him for the final weeks of last season. The attacking midfielder was included among the players reporting for the start of preseason preparations under new coach Edin Terzic, an encouraging sign for his availability heading into the new campaign. His return gives him a full preseason to rebuild fitness and sharpen his form after an injury-disrupted finish to the year. Sancet remains one of the squad's most influential attacking players when healthy and should be expected to play a prominent role if he avoids further setbacks.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Newcastle United want him
Newcastle United have been keeping close tabs on Sancet, according to Mundo Deportivo.
ANALYSIS
Sancet has been turning heads with his play for Athletic Club since the 2023/24 season, but he appears to have taken a significant step forward in the last 12 months, where he has improved to become one of the best attacking midfielders in LaLiga. Newcastle could use a creative presence in midfield next to Bruno Guimaraes and Sandro Tonali, so they're ready to make a move for him in the coming months.
