Rodrigo Riquelme
25-Year-Old
Betis
La Liga
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Riquelme signed with Real Betis ahead of the 2025/26 season after a stint at Atletico. He showed creativity and work rate in his previous campaigns, especially when deployed wide or as a tucked-in playmaker. Betis is expected to offer him more consistent minutes in an attacking setup that suits his strengths, as he's projected to start on the left wing. If he adapts quickly to the system, Riquelme could become a steady provider of assists and key passes throughout the campaign, with the aim of surpassing the eight-goal contribution mark he reached in both 2022/23 and 2023/24 with Girona and Atletico.
Plays substitute role in cup match
Riquelme (groin) sent in three crosses (one accurate) and completed two dribbles in 17 minutes as a substitute during Thursday's Copa del Rey loss to Atletico Madrid.
ANALYSIS
Riquelme bounced back from a four-game absence and saw limited minutes off the bench, which could be the usual case for him throughout the season. The winger has struggled to find consistency in terms of both playing time and performance over the current campaign, scoring no goals and delivering one assist across 16 matches played. He'll continue to serve as backup for Ez Abde on the left flank in upcoming contests.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could leave Atletico this summer
Riquelme could leave Atletico Madrid in the summer, according to Diario AS.
ANALYSIS
The defender has struggled to see regular minutes for Atletico Madrid this season, and he's likely to depart the club in the coming weeks as part of the operation that would send Alex Baena to Los Colchoneros. Riquelme would be a better option at left-back than what Villarreal currently have in their roster.
