Pau Cubarsi
19-Year-Old
Barcelona
La Liga
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Cubarsi featured in 35 La Liga games (29 starts) in 2024/25, contributing three assists from central defense. He earned his place in the starting XI and rose to the top of the center-back hierarchy with composed defending and intelligent positioning, especially for his age. His consistent performances helped the team navigate injury spells and secure the league title. Heading into 2025/26, Cubarsi is expected to be a full-time starter and headed for 30-plus starts. If he continues to progress, he could become one of the most reliable and solid young defenders in Europe. The goal for him and Barcelona is to secure more clean sheets, though given the Hansi Flick system, that may be hard to count on.
Notches two clearances
Cubarsi had two clearances in Monday's 1-0 victory versus Portugal.
ANALYSIS
Cubarsi would help to yet another clean sheet for Spain, recording two clearances in the defense on their way to a fifth straight clean sheet. He would also complete 71 passes, needing to be more of the backboard in the defense with Aymeric Laporte constantly with a Portugal player at his shoulder. Cubarsi is yet to leave the field this World Cup and should remain in this role for the quarterfinals.
