MARCH 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Limited in training Arnaiz appears to have picked up an injury, as he was held to individual training Monday.

Impact Arnaiz looks to maybe be in jeopardy for Saturday's match against Almeria, as he was held to training by himself Monday due to an apparent injury, appearing to have possibly picked up the issue after coming off in the 69th minute in the club's last match against Real Madrid on March 16. This could be a brutal turn of events for the forward, as he returned from a previous injury just two contests ago. He will now hope to see the jump to team training this week and make the team sheet against Almeria, although if he is an option, expect him to serve off the bench, only having started in six of his 19 appearances this season.

Fit for Monday's match Arnaiz (biceps) is on the bench for Monday's match against Alaves.

Starts individual training Arnaiz (biceps) has begun training individually ahead of Saturday's contest against Cadiz.

Impact Arnaiz is already back on the training pitch after missing last week's contest against Real Sociedad due to a bicep injury he picked up in training. This is good news for the forward, as he is now possibly an option for Saturday's match against Cadiz if he can be upgraded to team training in the coming days.

FEBRUARY 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Not an option for Saturday Arnaiz (bicep) will not be an option for Saturday's contest against Real Sociedad, the club announced Friday.

Luckily for the club, his absence shouldn't affect a whole lot, as he mainly has served as a rotational player, only starting five times all campaign. He will still have a chance to train Friday and avoid the absence, but that is still up in the air, as the results of his testing will decide where the player ends up on Saturday to face Sociedad.

Sets up game-winning goal Arnaiz assisted once to go with two crosses (two accurate) and one corner in Friday's 1-0 win versus Rayo Vallecano. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 74th minute.

Impact Arnaiz came off the bench, and just like it happened with Raul Garcia de Haro, he was instrumental in the team's earning the win in the dying stages -- he executed the corner kick that was nodded home by the aforementioned striker. Arnaiz is expected to hold a bench role going forward, however, so his fantasy upside should remain fairly low.

DECEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Bench option against Girona Arnaiz (hip) is available for Saturday's match versus Girona.

Takes three shots in loss Arnaiz registered three shots (two on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-0 loss to Athletic.

Impact Osasuna didn't create much on offense all game long, but Arnaiz looked active and managed to attempt a few shots on target despite not finding the back of the net. Arnaiz should remain in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against Valencia and might be in line for even more responsibility on the attack with Chimy Avila suspended.

Returning to Osasuna Arnaiz has signed a two-year contract with Osasuna after leaving Leganes as a free agent.
