Mateu Morey - Remains sidelined Morey (knee) is not in the squad to face Villarreal on Saturday.

Impact Morey was expected to be out for three weeks, and while there was a chance the defender could've recovered during the international break, that wasn't the case. Morey's next chance to play will come against Real Sociedad on Tuesday, but even if he's fit, he's nothing more than a depth alternative on the right side of the defense.

Pablo Maffeo - Won't face Villarreal Maffeo (undisclosed) is not in the squad to face Villarreal on Saturday.

Impact Maffeo didn't recover from his injury during the international break and won't be an option to face El Submarino Amarillo. Valery (illness) should be fit enough to start on the right side of the defense, while Maffeo's next chance to return will come in a midweek clash against Real Sociedad next Tuesday.

Vedat Muriqi - Comes off Monday Muriqi was forced off with a knock during Monday's clash with Cyprus.

Impact Muriqi was forced off with a knock Monday after a collision in his own box. The forward walked off under his own power, and after the match the outlook seemed to be positive regarding the issue. Still it could put him in doubt for Saturday's clash with Villarreal.

Lato Toni - Sends five crosses, strong display Lato recorded five crosses (three accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 1-0 victory versus Leganes.

Impact Lato was a constant menace on the left side of the attack, and one of his several crosses was met by Vedat Muriqi, who set up Dani Rodriguez for the lone goal of the match. Lato might not be a regular starter going forward, however, but he's an intriguing choice when fielded due to his attacking mentality and crossing ability.

Vedat Muriqi - Sets up game-winning goal Muriqi assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 1-0 win against Leganes.

Impact Muriqi is a huge menace in the attacking end, and he came through when Mallorca needed him the most, as he won a cross into the far post and his set-up allowed Dani Rodriguez to score the winner. Muriqi should continue to produce upfront for Mallorca, as his starting role is completely secure. He should be one of the first names on the team sheet going forward.

Dani Rodriguez - Scores game-winning goal Saturday Rodriguez scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), eight crosses (three accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 1-0 win over Leganes.

Impact Rodriguez found himself just inches away from the goal and in a perfect position following an aerial assist from Vedat Muriqi, so he only had to nod the ball home to give Mallorca what would end up being the game-winning goal. The talented playmaker should continue to pull the strings in midfield for Mallorca, though scoring goals on a semi-consistent basis would do wonders for his fantasy upside.

Dominik Greif - Keeps clean sheet Saturday Greif had two saves and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 1-0 victory against Leganes.

Impact Greif didn't have a lot of work throughout the game, but the goalkeeper responded every time he was needed in order to keep a clean sheet. He's given up two goals through his first three league appearances.

Takuma Asano - Active despite not scoring Asano recorded four shots (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 1-0 win versus Leganes.

Impact Asano didn't find the back of the net in this one, but the striker was one of Mallorca's most dangerous players with his pace and intelligent movements in the final third. Based on how good he's looked to start the season, it seems it's only a matter of time before he starts producing for Mallorca, and for now, his starting role seems secure.

Pablo Maffeo - Leaves match early Maffeo was forced off the field in the 33rd minute of Saturday's match against Leganes due to injury.

Impact Maffeo looks to be heading to the sidelines, as he had to be taken off the field in the first half due to undisclosed issues. There has yet to be a further report on his health, but with two weeks to recover due to the international break, he will hope to be an option for their next contest.

Chiquinho - Loaned to Spain Chiquinho completed a loan move to Mallorca from Wolves, the club announced.

Impact Chiquinho joined Mallorca in a last-minute transfer that will see him play with the club on loan. The winger wasn't going to get minutes with Wolves in the senior team, but could play some valuable time with Mallorca in the Spanish top flight.

Valery - Loaned to Mallorca Valery completed a loan move to Mallorca from Girona, the club announced.

Impact Valery is on the way to Mallorca, where he should see plenty of playing time on loan. The midfielder is a solid producer, but just wasn't needed in Girona with the addition of Oriol Romeu. Valery will hope for more chances in the starting XI with Mallorca as they look to stay up.

Robert Navarro - Signs with Mallorca Navarro has completed a transfer to Mallorca from Real Sociedad, according to his new club.

Impact Navarro has gone from one Spanish club to another, having linked up with Mallorca on a deal until 2025. He spent the last season on loan with Cadiz, starting in 24 of his 18 appearances while notching one goal on 30 shots and one assist on 41 chances created to go along with 96 crosses. That said, he should see a decent role with his new club, likely competing for starting time immediately after getting integrated with the squad.

AUGUST 29 • ROTOWIRE

Sergi Darder - Sends eight crosses in draw Darder recorded eight crosses (two accurate) and two corners in Tuesday's 0-0 draw versus Sevilla.

Impact Darder was Mallorca's main creative threat in the final meters, and that was noticeable in his set-piece duties numbers. Even though Darder was unable to find the back of the net or assist in this scoreless draw, he delivered solid numbers in midfield, something he'll aim to continue against Leganes on Saturday.

AUGUST 27 • ROTOWIRE

Johan Mojica - Big threat going forward Mojica generated one shot (zero on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Tuesday's 0-0 draw versus Sevilla.

Impact Mojica can get the job done on both sides of the ball, but he was particularly threatening in the attacking third due to his crossing ability. Mojica's two-way value can be an asset for the match against a recently-promoted Leganes side on Saturday.

AUGUST 27 • ROTOWIRE

Vedat Muriqi - Active with five shots Muriqi registered five shots (two on goal) and two chances created in Tuesday's 0-0 draw versus Sevilla.

Impact Muriqi was active in the final meters and was a huge threat leading Mallorca's attacking line, but he couldn't take advantage of the opportunities he created. Muriqi should remain Mallorca's main attacking threat for the match against Leganes on Saturday.

AUGUST 27 • ROTOWIRE

Leo Roman - Impressive in draw Tuesday Roman registered seven saves and secured a clean sheet in Tuesday's 0-0 draw versus Sevilla.

Impact Roman was the main reason why this game ended scoreless, and even though Sevilla showed glimpses of quality in the attack, the goalkeeper was there to respond every time he was needed. It's unclear if Roman will remain in the starting lineup for the match vs. Leganes on Saturday, though, as Dominik Grief is expected to return to the XI.

Javier Llabres - Out for 2-3 months Llabres will miss the next 2-3 month with a thigh injury to his right leg, reports Gabriel Forteza of AS.

Impact Llabres' start to the season will be delayed as he is set to miss the next months with a leg injury. He made just a start in 16 appearances last season, scoring once with 20 crosses (six accurate) during his first full campaign with the team.
