2025 Fantasy Outlook
Alvarez made 26 appearances in 2024/25 and contributed four goals and three assists while playing mainly on the left flank. His energy and direct approach added a different dimension to the attack during what was his breakout season. He earned more consistent minutes as the season progressed, contributing with 31 crosses, 25 shots, and 17 chances created, while averaging one tackle per match. Alvarez logged the third-highest number of minutes among midfielders, finishing with over 1,500. If he builds on that momentum, he could push for a regular starting role in 2025/26.
Available against Betis
Alvarez has recovered from his illness and trained with the team on Tuesday and will be available for Wednesday's clash against Real Betis, coach Claudio Giraldez said in the press conference. "Yes, yes. Hugo is recovered, he trained normally and is one of the team."
ANALYSIS
Alvarez missed the beginning of the season due to illness but has now recovered and will be available for Wednesday's clash against Betis. This is good news for Celta as he was a regular starter last season and provides a starting option for coach Claudio Giraldez.
