He was the defensive cornerstone of Elche's survival last season, finishing with a goal, three assists, 36 tackles, 29 interceptions and 107 clearances across 28 LaLiga appearances, and his availability positions him to reclaim that central role heading into the new season. Bigas is expected to compete for a starting spot as the season gets underway.

Impact Bigas had been dealing with discomfort that limited him to partial training during preseason, so his full involvement now confirms he has put that issue behind him. He was the defensive cornerstone of Elche's survival last season, finishing with one goal, three assists, 36 tackles, 29 interceptions and 107 clearances across 28 LaLiga appearances, and his return to full training positions him to reclaim that central role heading into the new 2026/27 La Liga season.

Dealing with discomfort Bigas (undisclosed) is dealing with some discomfort during preseason and is training partially, according to Javi Teruel of Diario AS.

Impact Bigas was the defensive cornerstone of Elche's survival last season, finishing with one goal, three assists, 36 tackles, 29 interceptions and 107 clearances across 28 La Liga appearances, and his current setback is one to monitor given his importance to the backline. His limited work continues apart from the group, and his path back to full training will be worth tracking as Elche prepares for the 2026/27 La Liga season.

Delivers one assist Bigas assisted once to go with one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Girona.

Impact Bigas was one of the standout performers in Saturday's 1-1 draw at Girona on the final day of the season, anchoring Elche's defensive line with authority and composure as his side defended deep throughout the match. The Spanish center-back consistently won his aerial duels and produced several crucial clearances in the closing stages as Girona pushed numbers forward in search of survival, finishing as one of the main reasons Elche secured the draw that confirmed their top-flight status, while also adding two tackles, two interceptions and three clearances. Bigas ends the 2025-26 season with one goal, three assists, 36 tackles, 29 interceptions and 107 clearances across 28 La Liga appearances, establishing himself as the defensive cornerstone of an Elche side that spent the entire campaign battling relegation before surviving on the final day against a direct rival.

Nets opener on Sunday Bigas scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Sunday's 2-1 victory against Oviedo.

APRIL 28 • ROTOWIRE

Back from ban Bigas is an option again after serving his suspension.

Impact Bigas is set for a return in the club's next match after serving a one-game ban due to a red card. A return to a starting role should come almost immediately, starting in 20 of his 22 appearances while notching four clean sheets this season, only missing out when fit on a few occasions.

APRIL 12 • ROTOWIRE

Sent off Friday Bigas was shown a red card in the 39th minute of Friday's clash with Rayo Vallecano.

Impact Bigas received two bookings early in the game, leaving his side with 10 men after a decent start to the match in which he made a goal-line clearance. The resulting ban now leaves the defender out of the next encounter with Valencia, after which he'll be able to return in an April 22 game versus Atletico. While he's one of his team's top defensive options, David Affengruber and Leo Petrot could absorb his work and potentially be joined by Victor Chust (undisclosed) depending on the latter's recovery progress.

APRIL 3 • ROTOWIRE

Available on Sunday Bigas (undisclosed) is a bench option for Sunday's clash with Villarreal.

Impact Bigas overcame a minor physical problem but will begin on the bench after starting in the previous three fixtures. Instead, Leo Petroc is getting the nod. Bigas has notched multiple clearances in his last five appearances, amassing 21, contributing to two clean sheets and botching five interceptions and four blocks through that stretch.

MARCH 8 • ROTOWIRE

Late call against Villarreal Bigas (undisclosed) is a late call for Sunday's clash against Villarreal, according to coach Eder Sarabia. "Pedro we will see after the final training session."

Impact Bigas wasn't able to train fully this week because of a muscular issue and will be a late fitness call following the final training session Saturday. The club will be hoping he gets the green light, as he is an undisputed starter in the Franjiverdes' back-three. If he ends up missing time, a change in the starting XI would be required, with Leo Petrot emerging as a potential replacement.

MARCH 6 • ROTOWIRE

Not training Wednesday Bigas (undisclosed) wasn't spotted in team training Wednesday following his exit at halftime during Sunday's 2-2 draw against Espanyol due to discomfort, according to Jorge Adsuar...

Impact Bigas has yet to return to team training this week while dealing with the muscular issue that forced him off at halftime in Sunday's draw against Espanyol. The center-back will be evaluated over the next few days to determine whether he can make the squad for Sunday's clash against Villarreal. If he ends up missing the matchup it would be a tough blow for the Franjiverdes given his regular starting role in the back line, with Leo Petrot the most likely candidate to step in and fill the spot.

MARCH 4 • ROTOWIRE

Logs nine clearances in loss Bigas made one tackle, nine clearances and two blocks and was shown a yellow card during Friday's 2-1 loss against Athletic Bilbao.

Impact Bigas was one of his side's few positives from a fantasy standpoint, almost logging double-digit clearances and limiting an Athletic offense who just got their second goal due to a late penalty. That's now 16 clearances and four blocks over the last two starts for the center-back, a very positive sign after his struggles over the last two months.

FEBRUARY 23 • ROTOWIRE

Imperious defensive performance Bigas recorded two shots (zero on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Friday's 0-0 draw versus Osasuna.

Impact Bigas led the Elche defensive effort Friday with seven clearances as they earned one point from a 0-0 draw versus Osasuna. In addition to clearing his lines, the central defender added two tackles (one won), two interceptions and two blocks across his 980 minutes of play. The 90 minute shift marked Bigas' first since Jan. 3.

FEBRUARY 15 • ROTOWIRE

On bench Friday Bigas (knee) is on the bench for Friday's visit to Levante.

Impact Bigas missed the previous game due to a minor injury but could return as a substitute in Friday's derby. However, he might not have a lot of fantasy upside as a center-back if he's given limited minutes. He'll aim to regain a spot in the contention with Adria Pedrosa and Leo Petrot for subsequent fixtures.

Impact Bigas was forced off during the game against Valencia due to knee injury before missing the last game due to the issue. The defender seems to be nearly fit since he will be a late call for Friday's derby against Levante. Bigas has been a regular starter for the Franjiverdes this season and could claim back his role if deemed fit for the clash.

Suffers knee injury Bigas was forced off in the 60th minute of Saturday's 1-1 draw against Valencia due to a knee injury, according to COPE.

Impact Bigas suffered a bad knock to his knee with opponent Lucas Beltran and was forced off at the hour-mark with pain and crying, rising concerns about a possible important injury. Bigas will be assessed in the coming days to know the extend of the issue, but if it had to be an important one, it would be a blow for the Franjiverdes since he is an undisputed starter in the backline and his absence will force a change, with Leo Petrot likely taking the spot in the back-three.

JANUARY 12 • ROTOWIRE

Assists in victory Bigas assisted once to go with one cross (one accurate) and three chances created in Sunday's 4-0 victory over Rayo Vallecano.

Impact Bigas complemented his decent defensive performance with a pass that led to Alvaro Rodriguez's goal in the 67th minute of the game. Bigas had some freedom to attack despite featuring as part of a three-man central defense, and the three chances created marked his highest figure in the first five months of the campaign. He has made three starts in a row, averaging 2.0 clearances and 1.3 tackles per game, and contributing to a pair of clean sheets in that period.

DECEMBER 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Only fit for bench Bigas (undisclosed) is on the bench for Sunday's match against Real Madrid.

Impact Bigas is with the team but not ready to return to his starting role yet, as the defender is only an option from the bench. The plan will likely be to test his legs from the bench before starting the next contest, as he has now started in all but two games he has been available for this season.

NOVEMBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Bigas has cleared the muscular problems that sidelined him for the clash against Real Sociedad prior to the international break, as he returned to full team training on Wednesday.

Unavailable Friday Bigas (undisclosed) is not in the squad for Friday's game against Real Sociedad.

Impact Bigas was forced off in the last game against Barcelona due to an injury but will be a late call for Friday's clash against Real Sociedad. The defender will be assessed after the final training session on Thursday to know if he can make the squad on Friday. If he has to miss the game, Hector Fort could see a bigger role in the backline.

NOVEMBER 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Subs off against Barcelona Bigas left the field in the second half of Sunday's meeting with Barcelona after suffering an apparent discomfort.

Impact Bigas was active as part of a center-back partnership with David Affengruber before being replaced by Hector Fort in the weekend's clash. The experienced defender will need to be assessed ahead of the upcoming game versus Real Sociedad, causing a serious concern for the squad given that he has been a regular starter when available.
