FEDE SAN EMETERIO NEWS

Torn ACL confirmed Fede will miss the remainder of the 2023/24 season after a tear in his right ACL was confirmed.

Impact Fede suffered the injury against Valencia and is now set to miss the remainder of the season. With Fede left sideline it will be Gonzalo Escalante who takes over with more minutes both off the bench and in the starting XI.

Off in first half Fede was forced off in the first half of Sunday's match against Valencia due to injury.

Impact Fede lasted just 15 minutes before succumbing to an injury and being repalced by Gonzalo Escalante. The midfielder's full extent of injury should be available ahead of next week's match against Alaves.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Scores before coming off Fede scored and came off at halftime during Thursday's 2-1 loss to Arandina.

Impact Fede returned from a knee injury in the Copa Del Rey but was brought off the pitch just minutes after scoring. As he is just returning from a knee injury it's possible that he was being limited to 45 minutes of action no matter what happened, though there is some minor concern he aggravated the knee injury.

Still not fit Fede (knee) is out for Monday's match against Celta Vigo.

Impact Fede has yet to return from a calf injury he encountered in only the third match of the season, leaving him out for a 12th straight match. The midfielder will likely have to work his way back into the starting XI once healthy, as he was the starter for the first two matches of the season before the injury. He will probably be on the bench in his return to action, fighting to get the time back in the starting XI.

Remains out Sunday San Emeterio (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's match against Real Madrid, manager Sergio Gonzalez told media Friday.

Impact The manager acknowledged San Emeterio is one of the four players who will be out for Sunday's match, but he didn't provide many details of the injury or an estimated timeline for his return. The veteran midfielder hasn't played since late August, however, so his absence is not going to affect many fantasy decisions.

NOVEMBER 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out once again Fede (knee) is out for Monday's match against Valencia.

Impact Fede will look to return soon after spending another match on the sidelines. He has not played since August and will have to earn his time back once he is healthy. He will likely only be an option off the bench when he returns, getting few opportunities with the starting XI.

OCTOBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Remains shelved Saturday Fede (knee) will not be an option against Girona on Saturday.

Impact Fede last was on the pitch for the club Aug. 26 versus Almeria when he made a one-minute cameo appearance. Given his extended layoff, the midfielder will likely have to settle for a spot on the bench whenever he is cleared to rejoin the squad.

OCTOBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sidelined Wednesday Fede -- who was unavailable against Betis on Sunday -- will remain shelved for Wednesday's clash with Rayo Vallecano.

Impact Between injuries and his suspension, Fede has made just three appearances (two starts) to open the season, which includes a one-minute cameo. In his stead, Gonzalo Escalante has started four straight and may displace Fede from the starting XI even once healthy.

SEPTEMBER 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Eligible to face Bilbao Fede completed his suspension and will be eligible to face Athletic Bilbao on Sep. 16.

Impact The central midfielder came off the bench against Almeria and was sent off, forcing him to miss the Villarreal contest, but he will be eligible to take on Athletic Bilbao after the international. That said, he's not likely to start and should be noting more than an option off the bench.

SEPTEMBER 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Suspended to face Villarreal Fede was sent off in Saturday's match against Almeria and will miss Friday's game against Villarreal.

Impact The central midfielder had started the team's first two league matches but came off the bench in the previous contest, entering the game in the final stages of the contest and seeing a straight red card on stoppage time due to a harsh foul. As a result, Fede won't be eligible to face Villarreal, but he should be ready to return when Cadiz takes on Athletic Bilbao after the international break.

AUGUST 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Scores with lone shot Fede scored a goal with his lone shot during Monday's 1-0 win over Deportivo Alaves.

Impact Fede found the back of the net after just seven minutes scoring the lone goal of the match. The goal was more than the midfielder scored in 33 appearances a year ago as he's more known for his work on the defensive side of midfield.

AUGUST 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Assists in victory Fede assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Elche. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 18th minute.

Impact Fede assisted Gonzalo Escalante for the opener in the 10th minute. This was his only goal contribution of the season. He also recorded two tackles, two interceptions and two clearances. He was substituted in the 80th minute for Jose Mari. Since this was his first season at the club, it is highly likely that his involvement and importance will increase as time goes by.

JUNE 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Quiet in return Fede generated one tackle (one won) and one interception in Friday's 1-0 defeat versus Mallorca.

Impact Fede had a quiet match in his first start since serving a suspension (yellow card accumulation). He's yet to score or assist on the season, totaling 16 tackles (10 won) and seven interceptions in the last eight games.

MAY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Back in contention Fede will be an option against Mallorca on Friday after serving his one-match ban.

Impact Fede started seven straight contests before being handed his one-match suspension. In those contests, the midfielder registered 15 tackles (nine won), six interceptions and five clearances while also generating just one shot (off target). With his suspension behind him, Fede should be back in the starting XI versus Mallorca.

MAY 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Suspended against Atleti Fede picked up a 10th yellow card during Sunday's 2-1 win over Valencia and was handed a one-match ban.

Impact Fede's 10th yellow card will see him back on the sideline with a one-match ban. The midfielder will likely open a spot for Ruben Alcaraz in the starting XI, though Fede projects to take the starting role back for a May 12 trip to Mallorca.

MAY 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

One tackle in return Fede generated one tackle (one won) in Friday's 2-0 victory versus Girona.

Impact Fede made his return to the pitch after subbing in and playing just 14 minutes of the match Friday. He has generally been a starter for the team, capping 13 starts in 17 appearances. In that span, the midfielder has totaled 16 tackles (six won), nine clearances and seven blocks.

FEBRUARY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Should be available Friday Fede (undisclosed) has been called up by Cadiz for Friday's clash against Girona.

Impact Fede has missed Cadiz's last three La Liga games, first due to a yellow card suspension and then with a minor injury, but he has been called up to Friday's squad and should be available to return to the pitch against Girona. He had started 13 of the previous 14 matches in midfield prior to his injury.

FEBRUARY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Left out Friday Fede was not included in the match-day squad against Athletic on Friday due to an undisclosed injury.

Impact Fede will miss his second straight contest after having been previously sidelined against Mallorca on Saturday. Once cleared to play, the midfielder should feature prominently in the starting XI with Theo Bongonda getting the start Friday.

FEBRUARY 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Suspension finished Fede served his one-game suspension during Cadiz's loss Saturday at Sevilla.

Impact Alex and Ruben Alcaraz were the Cadiz team's central midfielders of its 4-4-2 formation used Saturday. But now that Fede can play without restrictions, fantasy managers should not be surprised if he or any other teammate sits out against Mallorca on Jan. 28.

JANUARY 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Picks up fifth yellow Fede had one cross (zero accurate) and four tackles in Monday's 1-1 draw versus Elche. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 72nd minute.

Impact Fede picked up a fifth yellow card and will now be suspended for a Saturday trip to Sevilla. The midfielder picked up the card late in the second half, his first since coming back from the World Cup break. Fede will miss a Saturday trip to Sevilla and is eligible to return for a Jan. 28 clash with Mallorca.

JANUARY 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Comes off bench in loss Fede played for 10 minutes of Saturday's 2-0 loss to Osasuna.

Impact Fede wasn't able to start as Tomas Alarcon made the lineup but he was able to earn his season debut. He started in 10 of his 12 appearances while on loan at Cadiz last season and could be a reliable if low-value option should he make the side in the new campaign.

AUGUST 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to training Fede (undisclosed) returned to training during Tuesday's session ahead of Saturday's trip to Osasuna, according to Portal Cadista.

Impact Fede missed the opener against Real Sociedad but seems to be on track to make his season debut this weekend. While with Cadiz last season, Fede started in 17 of his 24 appearances and figures to be a regular option in midfield though his fantasy value isn't the highest.

AUGUST 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

To miss opener Fede will miss Sunday's opener against Real Sociedad, according to manager Sergio Gonzalez via Diario de Cadiz.

Impact Fede just joined from Valladolid on a permanent deal and is likely lacking fitness, even though he's already been on loan at Cadiz in 2022. Once fit, he could easily earn some starts for a team with plenty of midfielders that don't offer much fantasy value.

AUGUST 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Joins Cadiz permanently Fede transferred to Cadiz from Real Valladolid on Saturday, committing to a four-year contract with the Andalusian club.

Impact Fede already spent 2022 on loan with his new side and will now reinforce the midfield in over the coming season. After starting in 10 of his 12 league appearances, Fede can be expected to play plenty even if his fantasy value is unlikely to be the highest.

AUGUST 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Out with knee injury Fede missed Cadiz's last four games of the season due to a knee injury.

Impact Fede made 12 La Liga appearances (10 starts) in midfield since joining Cadiz on-loan in January, but he missed the final month of the campaign with a knee injury. The 25-year-old is set to return to Real Valladolid in the summer.
