Impact Sosa had another spectacular effort from the left flank, assisting Sehrou Guirassy for his side's first goal in the 15th minute and then put up season highs in both chances created and crosses. The left-back is enjoying another great campaign, being among league's top ten players in total crosses, accurate crosses and key passes and, consequentily, remains one of the best defenders for fantasy purposes.

Impact Sosa subbed on in the second half and played 23 minutes during the game, but failed to help them earn at least one point at home. The midfielder made the second-most crosses for his side, though. He started five games in the season so far, logging no goals and one assist, but that was his second straight on the bench.

OCTOBER 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Available for selection Sosa (illness) trained all week and will be available for Sunday's match against Union Berlin, according to manager Pellegrino Matarazzo.

Impact Sosa has missed two games this season but is still impressively productive when in the lineup as he's logged one assist from 47 crosses in five starts. His return should see a move back to a classic formation with three at the back in which Sosa excels on the left-flank.

OCTOBER 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Not in squad to face Wolfsburg Sosa is not in the match day squad to face Wolfsburg on Saturday due to illness.

Impact Sosa was a doubt in the buildup to the match but now his status is confirmed as out. The wing-back will hope to return in time for next week's match against Union Berlin.

Four accurate crosses during start Sosa logged four accurate crosses during a 1-0 loss to SC Freiburg on Saturday.

Impact Sosa logged VfB Stuttgart's best accurate-cross tally. Fantasy managers should expect a similar cross output as the current Bundesliga season progresses. Impressively, Sosa recorded 69 accurate crosses across his 28 appearances during the league's 2021-22 campaign.

AUGUST 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Option to start Sosa has been confirmed as an option to start in Saturday's match against Freiburg, according to manager Pellegrino Matarazzo.

Impact Sosa created one chance off the bench in his season debut during Saturday's draw with Werder Bremen and is nearing his full return. Interestingly he took the place of Tiago Tomas during his debut but his natural spot would be to bump Silas to another place on the pitch.

AUGUST 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Available for selection Sosa has returned to training and will be available for Saturday's match at Werder Bremen.

Impact Sosa wasn't fully fit for the opener against RB Leipzig but figures to get involved for this game. Silas started at left-wing-back for the first match but both he and Sosa should be on the field together if fit.

AUGUST 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Not available Sunday Sosa (undisclosed) has returned to training but isn't yet available for Sunday's match against RB Leipzig.

Impact Sosa is on the way to returning but needs at least another week to earn a place in the side. He recorded eight assists last season and should be a top attacking asset as long as he can stay fit.

AUGUST 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Back in training Sosa (undisclosed) returned to training Wednesday ahead of Sunday's match against RB Leipzig.

Impact Sosa missed Friday's DFB Pokal match against Dynamo Dresden but playing in the league opener presents a more likely scenario. With 17 assists recorded over the last two seasons, Sosa has the ability to be one of the top options on the left-flank in the Bundesliga.

Won't play in cup match Sosa has been training on his own and therefore won't be eligible for Friday's DFB Pokal match against Dynamo Dresden, his team announced Thursday. It's expected he'll return to tr...

Impact Sosa has been absent for training over much of the past week and it's started to impact his ability to play in competitive matches. Given that he'll start training just a few days before the league opener Aug. 7 against RB Leipzig, Sosa may not be ready to play a full 90 by then either. Still, he's coming off a season with one goal and nine assists, which should make him an important part of the team whenever he plays.

JULY 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Nine goal contributions Sosa scored once and provided eight assists during 28 appearances in the Bundesliga.

Impact Sosa finished yet another impressive Bundesliga season with nine goal contributions, and now faces questions about his future. The wing-back has been linked to some of the biggest clubs in Europe, and certainly has shown the talent needed to warrant a move. Sosa has 18 goal contributions in two seasons since breaking into the Stuttgart first team and consistently puts himself among the top left-backs in Germany.

Finally ends drought Sosa provided one assist on four chances created during Sunday's 2-2 draw with Munich.

Impact Sosa finally ended his goal-contribution drought that had grown to five matches. The wing-back has some of the best volume in the Bundesliga and is a strong fantasy play, even when he is struggling for end product. Sosa will hope to close the season out on a high note against Koln on Saturday.

Sends in 13 crosses in draw Sosa registered two off-target shots, three chances created, 13 crosses (three accurate) and a yellow card in Saturday's 1-1 draw to Wolfsburg.

Impact Sosa had a good offensive performance, leading his side in crosses and chances created during the draw. The midfielder also received his fourth yellow card of the season, though. He will now look to be extra careful to avoid a suspension when they visit Bayern on Sunday.

Impact Sosa once again displayed his great offensive acumen, always going up the field and being a threat from the flank, while also having decent contributions on the defensive end. Since February, when he started being deployed as a left back, Sosa has been one of the league's best two-way players at his position. He'll try to keep it up during Saturday's home clash against Wolfsburg.

APRIL 26, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Seven crosses for draw Sosa sent in seven crosses (two accurate) during Saturday's 0-0 draw with Mainz.

Impact Sosa had the only creative chances for Stuttgart as they were utterly shut down against Mainz. The wing-back has been the only consistent fantasy producer on a very tepid team, and remains the only player worth targeting. Sosa has a very favorable clash with Hertha next time out.
