Dodi Lukebakio
28-Year-Old
Benfica
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Lukebakio bounced back in 2024/25 in a big way, scoring 11 goals and adding two assists in 38 appearances (36 starts). After a mostly dour, injury-riddled first season in Sevilla, he appeared in every league game last campaign. Despite Sevilla having plenty of struggles overall as a team, Lukebakio produced double-digit goals, seven more than the team's next highest scorer. If that efficiency can improve just a bit after scoring 11 goals from 94 shots, there's a real chance for 15 or so goals, assuming he can stay fit for the entire season again.
Unused off bench
Lukebakio (ankle) was unused off the bench in Friday's 2-1 win over Santa Clara, according to manager Jose Mourinho, per Mais Futebol. "[Dodi] is going to the game."
ANALYSIS
Lukebakio returned to the team sheet Friday but did not play, appearing to still be limited for the game. However, this was likely in a buildup to Tuesday's contest against Real Madrid, ensuring he is fit to face the Spanish giants. He has started in all three of his UCL appearances this campaign and will look to return to that role, still in search of his first goal contribution.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Napoli looking at him?
Napoli could make a move for Lukebakio, according to El Desmarque.
ANALYSIS
Napoli must find a way to replace Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who left the club and signed with PSG, and Lukebakio is their first choice. However, Sevilla aren't expected to part ways with the Belgium international. Napoli would have to submit a mammoth offer to secure the service of the winger, who can play all over the attacking third.
