2026 Fantasy Outlook
Rayan made an immediate impact after arriving from Brazil in January 2026, scoring five goals with two assists in limited minutes as a teenage right winger for Bournemouth. That is an eye-catching return for a 19-year-old in half a season, and it hints at a high ceiling if he holds down a regular starting role in 2026/27. The fantasy caveat is that his sample is small and Bournemouth may manage his development, so consistent minutes are not guaranteed. Still, the raw output and talent make him one of the more exciting cheap fliers around. He is a speculative pick with genuine upside, worth a punt if he wins a settled role, and a name to watch closely early in the season.
Back in England for new season
Rayan is back training with Bournemouth after the World Cup, according to the club.
ANALYSIS
Rayan made an immediate impact after arriving from Brazil in January, scoring five goals with two assists in limited minutes as a teenage right winger, an eye catching return for a 19 year old in half a season. He also featured for Brazil at the World Cup, finishing with one assist in four appearances, including three starts, and led the team in chances created during the round of 16 loss to Norway. His return to Bournemouth training now shifts the focus to whether he can build on that small but promising sample and secure a regular starting role heading into the new 2026/27 Premier League season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Liverpool showing interest
Rayan has been the subject of an enquiry from Liverpool, according to TEAMtalk.
ANALYSIS
The Reds are exploring the possibility of bringing the Bournemouth winger to Anfield to reunite him with former manager Andoni Iraola, but a move is unlikely to happen this summer. Bournemouth are under little pressure to sell one of their brightest young talents, meaning Liverpool could face difficult negotiations if they decide to pursue a move even after Bournemouth's initial refusal. Rayan represented Brazil in the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and given the way he played since joining the Cherries in January, it wouldn't be surprising if big teams all over Europe continue to knock on the club's door for a potential move.
