Dimitri Foulquier - Creates chance in win Foulquier made three interceptions and created a chance in last weekend's 2-0 victory against Celta Vigo. He also made three clearances in the match.

Impact Foulquier assisted a goal and kept nine clean sheets in 29 La Liga appearances (25 starts) during his first campaign with Valencia, mostly playing at right back/right wing back but also sometimes filling in on the left or in the back-three. The 29-year-old will be competing with Thierry Correia to keep the starting spot next season.

Cristhian Mosquera - On bench in season finale Mosquera was an unused substitute in last weekend's victory against Celta Vigo.

Impact Mosquera made six La Liga appearances (three starts) in central defense during his debut campaign with Valencia, but the 17-year-old is definitely one for the future as he still mostly plays for the u19 side.

Mouctar Diakhaby - Takes shot in win Diakhaby made four clearances and two interceptions in last weekend's 2-0 victory against Celta Vigo. He also took a shot in the match.

Impact Diakhaby tallied an assist and five clean sheets in 29 La Liga appearances (21 starts) this campaign as Valencia started switching more to a back-three in 2022. In four seasons with the club, however, the 25-year-old is still yet to really feel like a consistent, first-choice starter in central defense.

Giorgi Mamardashvili - On bench in season finale Mamardashvili was an unused substitute in last weekend's victory against Celta Vigo.

Impact Mamardashvili kept eight clean sheets and conceded 20 goals in 18 La Liga games this season. The 21-year-old took over from Jasper Cillessen as Valencia's starting goalkeeper in February when the veteran went down with a leg injury, and he more or less kept it for the rest of the campaign even when Cillessen returned to fitness.

Jasper Cillessen - On bench in season finale Cillessen was an unused substitute in last weekend's victory against Celta Vigo.

Impact Cillessen kept three clean sheets and allowed 29 goals in 17 La Liga games this season, but the 33-year-old missed about three months from January to April after requiring surgery on his leg, and he subsequently lost the starting goalkeeper spot to Giorgi Mamardashvili in Valencia.

Eray Comert - On bench against Celta Comert (undisclosed) was an unused substitute in Saturday's victory against Celta Vigo.

Impact Comert picked up an injury in last weekend's draw with Espanyol, but he was deemed fit enough to return to the squad for the season finale. The 24-year-old made eight La Liga appearances (five starts) as a rotating part of Valencia's back-three since joining from Basel in January.

Lato Toni - Out for season finale Lato (strain) was not in Valencia's match day squad for Saturday's victory against Celta Vigo.

Impact Lato recorded an assist and a clean sheet in 11 La Liga appearances (seven starts) this season at left back, but he missed the last few months of the campaign with a muscular injury. The 24-year-old will want to return healthy next season to compete with Jose Gaya and Jesus Vazquez for the starting spot.

Gabriel Paulista - Makes eight interceptions in win Paulista (undisclosed) made three tackles (two won), four clearances, eight interceptions and two blocks while helping his side to keep a clean sheet during Saturday's 2-0 win over...

Impact Paulista made it to the starting XI after missing the previous two outings and had a brilliant performance at the heart of the defense, filling the stat sheet and always prevailing over opposing forwards. Injuries unfortunately made the centre back a good chunk of the season but he was always very productive when able to play, with two goals, one assist, 85 clearances and seven clean sheets over 19 starts.

Jose Luis Gaya - Sends in seven crosses in win Gaya had one shot on goal, created one chance, sent in seven inaccurate crosses, made two interceptions and helped his side to keep a clean sheet during Saturday's 2-0 win over Cel...

Impact Gaya didn't have much defensive work here so he found a lot of room to support the attacking end, pacing his side in crosses and being involved in the play that resulted in the opening goal of the match. The left back struggled with some injuries during the campaign but was very productive when able to play, with two goals, four assists and some nice peripheral numbers over 24 appearances (22 starts).

MAY 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Carlos Soler - Takes two shots in win Soler had two off-target shots, created two chances and sent in four crosses (one accurate) during Saturday's 2-0 win over Celta Vigo.

Impact Soler wasn't as brilliant as he usually is but at least contributed much more than he did in his previous outing, being involved in some dangerous plays, creating for teammates but also finishing sometimes. Despite closing his campaign with a six-game scoreless streak, the playmaker still had great numbers overall, with 11 goals and five assists over 32 appearances.

MAY 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Jaume Domenech - Keeps clean sheet in win Domenech made three saves and kept a clean sheet during Saturday's 2-0 win over Celta Vigo.

Impact Domenech got the nod for the season finale, replacing Giorgi Mamardashvili in the net, and used his foot to make a miraculous save in the closing stages of the first half, when his side led by just one goal. This was the first clean sheet over four appearances for the goalkeeper during the campaign. If he stays at Valencia for next season, Domenech will probably remain as a backup for Mamardashvili.

Marcos De Sousa - Provides assist in win Andre made an assist, had one off-target shot and drew three fouls during Saturday's 2-0 win over Celta Vigo.

Impact Andre made his second consecutive start, something he had done only once this season, and finished his campaign in style as he assisted Maxi Gomez for the opening goal of the match of the 28th minute. The forward struggled to find regular playing time since joining Valencia and had just one goal scored and three assists over 29 appearances.

Maxi Gomez - Scores opener in win Gomez scored a goal off three shots (two on target) and drew four fouls during Saturday's 2-0 win over Celta Vigo.

Impact Gomez was instrumental for his side to seal the season with a win as he scored the opening goal of the match in the 28th minute and was involved in the play that resulted in the second goal. Overall, the forward had a very quiet campaign, with just five goals over 29 league appearances. But finishing with goals in back-to-back matches certainly gives hope that he can do better.

Omar Alderete - Suspended for season finale Alderete will miss Saturday's clash against Celta Vigo with a suspension for yellow card accumulation.

Impact Alderete picked up his 15th booking of the season in last weekend's draw with Espanyol, meaning he will be suspended against Celta. The 25-year-old ends his first campaign in Valencia with two goals and seven clean sheets in 29 La Liga appearances (28 starts) in central defense, and he should enter next season as one of the club's top choices in the position. With Gabriel Paulista (ankle), Hugo Guillamon (foot) and Eray Comert (undisclosed) all questionable or out with injuries, Cristhian Mosquera could be called in to the back three for Sunday's game if none are fit enough to play.

Hugo Guillamon - Suffers foot injury Guillamon fractured a bone in his foot during training on Friday, Valencia announced Monday.

Impact Guillamon's season is likely over due to this injury, and he will finish the campaign with a goal and three clean sheets in 31 La Liga appearances (28 starts), usually in midfield but also often pushed back into central defense.
