Luiz Junior
24-Year-Old
Villarreal
La Liga
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Luiz Junior was the backup goalkeeper to Diego Conde in the first half of the 2024/25 campaign, but once he grabbed a starting role following the former's knee injury in December, he closed the season in the XI. He ended up starting in 16 of Villarreal's last 24 games, conceding a mere 18 goals and keeping five clean sheets. It might be an open competition as to who starts the 2025/26 campaign, but based on the body of work last season, Luiz Junior might have the upper hand. If that's the case, he could be a strong choice as your starting goalkeeper once the top-tier options are off the board.
Stellar in second half
Luiz Junior registered two saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 2-1 victory versus Osasuna.
ANALYSIS
The goalkeeper allowed one goal on a penalty kick but as excellent otherwise, especially in the second half when Osasuna tried to make some inroads. Sevilla presents a challenge for Luis Junior on Tuesday, as the team has scored nine times in La Liga this season.
