Fantasy gems for matchday 14
Let's go with some names to snatch before the twelfth matchday of the league.
These are the five names I recommend for this matchday, in case they appear in your markets or if you can snatch them from your rival.
2.800.000€-70.000€4

The young Betis midfielder has taken the spotlight and will continue to do so, due to the hindered midfield of the Seville team. With the long list of injured players in the midfielder position, Isco, William Carvalho, and now Cardoso, he has been chosen by "the Engineer". Sergi Altimira, who at twenty-three has the opportunity to establish himself as a player of the present and the future. In fantasy terms, he is a player who in the games he has played has provided an assist, but he has already enjoyed seven starting appearances, standing out especially for his high percentage of accurate passes (89%). In the markets, he is a safe and quite cheap option, only 2.5 million.
6.530.000€-360.000€3
MD
Fondly nicknamed "the fifth Beatle" for his 60s haircut, he is currently in his sweetest moment since arriving in Girona. After a week of international matches, he rounds off a very productive month with his great performance against Getafe providing an assist and a crucial goal with the winning goal for "La Roja" against the Swiss team in the Nations League. It's a good time to acquire this winger from Barbate, and his price is quite attractive for snatching, 17 million and rising.
4.520.000€-40.000€?

They say when one door closes, another one opens, and that must be what Real Madrid fans are thinking. Despite being one of the best games of the white team this season, the match against Osasuna left a long list of injured players, Lucas Vazquez, Rodrygo, and the most painful one, Eder Militao, both for the position he plays in (with few replacements) and the duration of the injury (between 9 - 12 months). In the midst of this discouragement emerged, thanks to a brave decision by Carlo Ancelotti (not known for these heroic acts), the figure of youth academy product Raúl Asencio. He replaced Militao and not only fulfilled his duties but also had a very prominent role, even providing an assist with an excellent pass and ending with a clean sheet. Now, after his performance, he has earned the manager's trust and looks set to start in the upcoming games due to the absences in the center-back position (Militao, Alaba, and Tchouameni) and the lack of faith in Jesús Vallejo. His market value is 1.2 million, a meager amount for a Real Madrid defender.
4.540.000€-100.000€6
MD
Another player who has been widely talked about during this break and has seen a significant increase in value is Giuliano Simeone. The Argentine, with effort and dedication, has won the hearts of the red-and-white fans, silencing the critics who suggested he was in the club because of his father, and letting go of players like Samu Omorodion who is "tearing it up" at Porto. A product of the Atlético youth system, he was loaned to Zaragoza and Alavés, although he spent almost the entire season sidelined due to a serious knee injury. At just 21 years old and with strong performances in recent games with two assists and a goal, it seems he has earned a place in the starting eleven. His market value is 3.5 million, a minimal investment for a potentially significant return.
4.740.000€-190.000€?
DL
He arrived with the status of an important player, but it took time for the young Portuguese forward's efforts to pay off. At only eighteen, he was acquired by Wolverhampton from Porto during the time of Nuno Espirito Santo as the manager of the Wolves for 40 million, and he has been at different teams on loan (Anderlecht, PSV, Rangers, and now UD Las Palmas) waiting to break out as a top player. This season has started with numbers that indicate he may be heading in that direction, having scored three goals and provided an assist with his importance in the game growing with each matchday. Furthermore, his team is on a good streak and sailing smoothly, currently away from the danger zones. He is practically guaranteed a starting spot and has a good match ahead to continue shining, at home against Mallorca, which is less formidable away from "Son Moix". His market value is 9 million.
