Mouctar Diakhaby - Scores with lone shot Diakhaby scored a goal with his lone shot while creating a chance during Friday's 2-1 win over Sevilla.
Impact Diakhaby found the back of the net in the 60th minute, scoring Valencia's first goal of the match. Diakhaby lined up in midfield after spending the majority of last year as a center back, with Friday's goal bringing him a third of the way to last year's total in just one match.

Andre Almeida - Assists in season opener Almeida had an assist while creating two chances during Friday's 2-1 win over Sevilla.
Impact Almeida set up Mouctar Diakhaby in the 60th minute assisting Valencia's first goal of the match. Almeida played as a forward alongside Hugo Duro in the match, getting off to a great start to the season as he looks to build on last year's campaign where he had six goal involvements in 34 appearances.

Javier Guerra Moreno - Nets late game winner Guerra scored a goal with his lone shot during Friday's 2-1 win over Sevilla.
Impact Guerra entered the match in the 62nd minute and scored the game winning goal for Valencia in the 88th. The goal matched the midfielder's entire season total from last season as the young talent made an impact from the bench on Friday.
AUGUST 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Hugo Duro - Sets up game winner Duro had an assist while taking three shots (one on goal) and creating a chance during Friday's 2-1 win over Sevilla.
Impact Duro set up Javi Guerra in the 88th minute assisting the game winning goal for Sevilla. The assist in the season opener matches Duro's entire total in 30 appearances from last season as the forward as he was efficient, assisting with his lone chance created in the match.

Marcos De Sousa - Unavailable against Sevilla Andre (knee) was not named to the squad ahead of Friday's clash with Sevilla.
Impact Andre was participating in training in the lead-up to Friday's season opener but doesn't appear to be ready to play. Last season, the forward made just three starts in 17 contests, so his eventual return may not have much of an impact on the starting XI.

AUGUST 11, 2023 • THEATHLETIC.COM
Marcos De Sousa - Full participant in training Andre (knee) took full part in training Wednesday ahead of Friday's trip to Sevilla.
Impact Andre didn't appear in pre-season but has been active in training as he makes his way back from a knee injury. The forward isn't likely to play a major role in the starting XI even when fully fit, making just three starts (17 appearances) in 2022-23 before suffering the knee injury.

Koba Koindredi - Struggles on loan Koindredi returned to Valencia following the conclusion of his season-long loan to Oviedo.
Impact Koindredi failed to accomplish much while on loan with Oviedo, making just 18 appearances for 918 minutes total. The midfielder is a likely candidate for another loan unless he shows something in pre-season to earn a depth role in the first team.

Diego Lopez Noguerol - Starting in friendly Lopez (undisclosed) was named to the starting XI for Tuesday's friendly versus Nottingham Forest.
Impact Lopez appeared in just 10 matches for Valencia last season, including starting the last five contests of the season in which he racked up three goals on nine shots (seven on target), one assist and seven crosses (three accurate). If he can maintain his place in the starting XI this season, Lopez should offer top-end fantasy upside given his goal-scoring acumen.

Pepelu - Transfers to Valencia Pepelu has signed a five-year contract with Valencia after transferring from Levante, the club announced Saturday.
Impact Pepelu tallied one goal and two assists in 39 Segunda Division appearances for Levante last season, and he's now moving back up to La Liga after starting 23 top flight matches in 2021/22. The 24-year-old is joining Valencia, where he will compete with Yunus Musah, Hugo Guillamon, Andre Almeida, Nico and Ilaix Moriba for starts in midfield.
JULY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Cenk Ozkacar - Signs contract through 2028 Ozkacar has committed to Valencia after agreeing to a five-year contract through 2028, the club announced.
Impact Ozkacar is set to stay in Valencia since joining on loan from Lyon in August. He made 14 starts in 17 appearances, recording 46 clearances and 27 tackles (20 won). The 22-year-old has brought depth to the back line, but will continue to compete for a permanent spot at center back with Gabriel Paulista, who had a disappointing 2022/23 campaign.
JUNE 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Cenk Ozkacar - Solid during loan at Valencia Ozkacar kept four clean sheets and picked up one yellow card in 17 appearances (14 starts) this past season.
Impact Ozkacar had a solid season on defense this past season on loan at Valencia, as he kept four clean sheets in just 14 starts (17 total appearances). He also picked up just one yellow card, proving he can play well defensively while being disciplined. His loan from Lyon is set to end June 30, but Valencia has an option to buy the 22-year-old, so Ozkacar's career in La Liga may not be over yet.
JUNE 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Dimitri Foulquier - Solid season at right-back Foulquier recorded two assists on 12 chances created and kept three clean sheets in 30 appearances (17 starts) this past season.
Impact Foulquier recorded two assists this past season, his most in a domestic league season since the 2020-2021 campaign. He also recorded career highs in crosses (86) and accurate crosses (19). With him moving higher up the pitch and creating more chances, he could be in for a more productive campaign next season if he keeps that up.
JUNE 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Eray Comert - Decent in second season Comert scored one goal on 10 shots and kept two clean sheets in 23 appearances (19 starts) this past season.
Impact Comert scored his first goal in a domestic league this past season as he took 10 shots and added three chances created. He had a solid defensive season as well, with two clean sheets, 74 clearances and 35 tackles. He received a decent amount of playing time for being the third-choice center back, and could have a better campaign next season if he sees more playing time.
JUNE 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Mouctar Diakhaby - Solid at the back again Diakhaby scored three goals on 21 shots and kept four clean sheets in 29 appearances (28 starts) this past season.
Impact Diakhaby scored three goals this past season, his most in a season since joining the club in 2018. He also had a solid defensive season as he kept four clean sheet and made 105 clearances, his most since joining the club. The main downside to his season was his five yellow cards and one red card, which caused him to miss two matches for suspensions.
JUNE 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Thierry Correia - Decent in defense for Valencia Correia kept three clean sheets and picked up six yellow cards in 27 appearances (24 starts) this past season.
Impact Correia had a solid season for Valencia, as he set career highs in crosses (87), accurate crosses (25) and tackles (71). He also kept three clean sheets and picked up a career high six yellow cards. With his improvements in crossing and on the defensive end of the pitch, he could be in for more production next season.
JUNE 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Gabriel Paulista - Disappointing campaign Paulista scored one goal on 14 shots and kept one clean sheet in 21 appearances (18 starts) this past season.
Impact Paulista only scored one goal this past season, his fewest goal contributions in a season since 2018. He also kept just one clean sheets, and picked up two red cards in just 21 appearances. With a variety of injuries and suspensions, Paulista started three matches in a row just twice, two seasons removed from starting 31 matches.
JUNE 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jose Gaya - Another productive campaign Gaya scored one goal and recorded three assists in 31 appearances (all starts) this past season.
Impact Gaya recorded four goal contributions this past season, his fewest in the past three seasons. However, he did set career highs in chances created, crosses, accurate crosses and corners. He also had another solid defensive campaign, but kept just three clean sheets as his side struggled overall on that end. After three consecutive productive seasons at left-back, there is no reason not to expect the same next season.
JUNE 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Ilaix Moriba - Assists twice during loan season Moriba recorded two assists on 12 chances created in 24 appearances (10 starts) this past season.
Impact Moriba recorded two assists during his loan stint at Valencia, where he appeared in 24 matches. It is the most playing time he has gotten so far in his young career, and he set career highs in shots, chances created and fouls drawn as a result. His loan from RB Leipzig ends June 30, so his time at Valencia may be coming to an end soon.
