Nacho - Page 2 - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Makes three interceptions in loss Nacho made three interceptions and created one chance in 69 minutes of Tuesday's 3-2 loss to RB Leipzig.

Impact Nacho was handed just his fourth start of the season but ended up on the wrong end of his team's first loss. The inability of Nacho's team to keep clean sheets meant this was likely to happen eventually but the nature in which some of the goals were scored could provide some shock with or without multiple key starters.With David Alaba, Antonio Rudiger and Eder Militao ahead of Nacho in the depth chart, he's unlikely to play much more than a rotation role all season.

Goes distance in win Nacho made two interceptions while playing for the full 90 of Sunday's 2-1 win over Almeria.

Impact Nacho finds himself as the third center-back this season but a rough performance from Antonio Rudiger could keep him in the lineup quite frequently. When Nacho does play, it's helpful how frequently he can earn a clean sheet bonus in one of the top defenses Europe.

On bench in UCL win Nacho was an unused substitute in Saturday's 1-0 Champions League Final victory against Liverpool.

Impact Nacho wasn't needed on Saturday but he still played a crucial part in Real Madrid's home stretch this season as he filled in at left back or in central defense whenever David Alaba or Ferland Mendy were out with injury. Overall he scored three goals and kept a combined five clean sheets across 37 appearances (22 starts) across La Liga and the Champions League as his side won both competitions.

Suspended against Espanyol Nacho will miss Saturday's clash against Espanyol with a suspension for yellow card accumulation.

Impact Nacho picked up his fifth yellow card of the La Liga season last week against Osasuna, meaning he will be suspended for Saturday's game. With Eder Militao also suspended and Casemiro (thigh) and David Alaba (groin) questionable, Madrid might have to get creative with its defensive lineup for the match, with Jesus Vallejo being the only other senior center back left on the roster. Mario Gila has also been called up from Real Madrid Castilla for the game.

Scores off bench Nacho scored one goal from one shot in nine minutes of Sunday's 3-2 win over Sevilla.

Impact Nacho was a late tactical sub for Lucas Vazquez and found the winning goal for his side. Though he didn't play as well in the UCL tie against Chelsea, Nacho is one of many talented options at the disposal of manager Carlo Ancelotti. Up next is a trip to Osasuna.

APRIL 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Gets goal in win Nacho scored one goal from two shots (one on goal) during Sunday's 4-1 win over Granada.

Impact Nacho has struggled for minutes recently and Saturday's match was his first start in over a month. If his solid all-around efforts result in more starts, Nacho could be worth more attention in fantasy, but it's hard to tell how things will go after Eder Militao was benched for the first time all season. Up next is a midweek trip to Sheriff Tiraspol in the UCL.

Creates one chance in win Nacho created one chance and conceded a yellow card during Sunday's 2-1 win over Valencia.

Impact Nacho has interestingly been used as a left-back in each of the last two matches and Miguel has been shuttled back to the bench. With two yellow cards in his last two league starts, Nacho's value won't be the highest until he can balance his efforts with more clean sheets. Up next is a visit from Mallorca, which have scored three goals in five games.

SEPTEMBER 20, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

In lineup Sunday Nacho (muscular) made the starting lineup for Sunday's match against Celta Vigo.

Impact Nacho has missed one game this season but returns to the lineup so that David Alaba can get some rest before the Champions League begins. With Miguel remaining at left-back, Nacho is more of an option in the middle for the moment.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with muscle injury Nacho is working outdoors by himself in his recovery from a muscle injury.

Impact Nacho missed the match before the break and it looks like he'll miss at least one more, as he's yet to return to full training. His absence forced David Alaba to move centrally last match and that in turn led to the first start of the season for Miguel at left-back.

SEPTEMBER 7, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Scores in win Nacho scored one goal on his only shot and made six interceptions during Saturday's 4-1 win over Deportivo Alaves.

Impact Nacho appears to have his place in the lineup at center-back this season due to an abundance of options on each flank but also plenty of injuries. Given how Saturday's game went, this may not be such a bad thing for Nacho's value if he's kept busy. Up next is a trip to Levante, which will be without Roberto Soldado (hamstring).

AUGUST 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Extends contract by two seasons Nacho signed a two-year contract extension with Real Madrid on Thursday.

Impact Nacho kept 10 clean sheets in 22 league starts last season and was tied down in order to keep some stability if both Sergio Ramos and Raphael Varane end up leaving this summer. Since he was also active with 40 interceptions made last season, Nacho should still have plenty of upside in what remains a talented defense after the arrival of David Alaba.

JULY 8, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Scores in win Nacho scored one goal from two shots (one on goal) and conceded a yellow card during Sunday's 1-0 win over Athletic Club.

Impact Nacho was able to score the winning goal, keep a clean sheet and concede his third booking in four matches. If Raphael Varane remains absent for the season finale against Villarreal, Nacho will likely remain in the starting lineup and need to put up a similar defensive performance to Sunday's game to hold good value against the league's fourth-best attack.
