Nets brace in win Puado scored two goals off four shots (two on target), created one chance and made two tackles (both won) and two interceptions during Saturday's 4-3 win over Levante.
Impact Puado wasn't very productive during the first half, but things changed for him after halftime. With his side down by one goal, the striker found the back of the net twice in 15 minutes to give Espanyol a 4-3 lead that wouldn't be relinquished. There wasn't a better moment for Puado to score his first two goals of the season and he'll try to keep adding to his account during Friday's visit to Celta Vigo.

Takes two shots in win Puado took two shots (one on goal) and created two chances in 78 minutes of Sunday's 1-0 win over Real Sociedad.
Impact Puado is starting to find a place in the lineup again after missing the middle weeks of the season and Sunday represented another step in the right direction. It could be worth tracking his progression over the next few games, as he'll first face a tougher matchup at Rayo Vallecano before meeting Levante and Celta Vigo.

Makes bench for opener Puado (muscular) is on the bench for Saturday's opener against Osasuna.
Impact Puado makes the squad for the opener after playing in the Olympics, though his role on the team is likely minimal heading into the season. That said, he just signed a new contract and could find a bigger role in the new campaign.

Doubt for opener Puado is dealing with muscular issues and is listed as a doubt for Saturday's match at Osasuna, according to manager Vicente Moreno.
Impact Puado evidently returned from the Olympics hurt and despite training during the week, will be a late call as to whether or not he plays to open the season. Should he miss out, Lei Wu or Alvaro Vadillo could fill the gap on the wings.

Ready for season Puado participated in Tuesday's training session and is expected to be available in Saturday's trip to Osasuna, according to La Grada.
Impact Puado was with Spain during their run to the silver medal at the Olympics and could play a big role for Espanyol during their return to the first division. In 37 appearances last season, Puado scored 12 goals and provided eight assists in the second division.

Takes three shots in win Puado put three shots off target during Sunday's 1-0 win over Australia.
Impact Puado made his first start of the tournament and did plenty to get involved, even if he wasn't as efficient in getting his efforts on frame. Given some of the solid performances from the bench and elsewhere in the lineup, Puado may not have as big of an influence in this tournament.

Signs fresh contract Puado signed a contract extension through 2025 with Espanyol on Sunday.
Impact Puado is coming off a breakout season with 12 goals and eight assists while helping Espanyol return to the first division and he'll try to replicate that production with some job security to his name.
