2025 Fantasy Outlook
Nunez was one of the most productive defenders in Segunda, and he helped bring Elche back into the top division with two goals and six assists. The full-back loves to get forward and cause issues for defenses, though that will be much harder to do against some of the best teams in the world. While he attacked frequently last season, there's a chance that changes in La Liga as he's asked to do more defensively. At a minimum, he's a full-back who gets forward, which usually provides upside but an unreliable floor.
Completes Celta move
Nunez (groin) is a new addition to Celta Vigo's roster following his departure from Elche, the club announced Monday.
ANALYSIS
Nunez is currently dealing with an injury that has sidelined him from the last three games, but before that, he was very active in different positions in defense and midfield while taking some set pieces for Elche throughout the campaign. The 25-year-old has provided two assists while tallying 63 crosses (21 accurate) and 20 chances created over 19 games this season. He could move ahead of Sergio Carreira and Javi Rueda in the race for a right wing-back spot as soon as he's healthy.
