Jeremias Ledesma - Concedes two in draw Conan Ledesma recorded one save and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Celta Vigo.

FEBRUARY 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Lucas Pires - Back in contention Pires served his one-match suspension and will be eligible to face Rayo Vallecano on Saturday.

Impact Pires should retake his place in the starting XI after featuring in each of the club's last five contests. In those outings, the left-back managed four shots (one on target), 15 crosses (five accurate) and two corners. With Pires back in the squad, Javi Hernandez may have to settle for a spot on the bench after returning from a hamstring injury against Celta Vigo on Saturday.

FEBRUARY 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Brian Ocampo - Fit for Celta Vigo tilt Ocampo (undisclosed) will begin as a substitute for Sunday's game versus Celta Vigo.

FEBRUARY 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Mamadou Mbaye - Available against Celta Vigo Mbaye (undisclosed) is on the bench for Sunday's game versus Celta Vigo.

Fali - Won't play Sunday Fali will not be an option for Sunday's match against Celta Vigo, as manager Mauricio Pellegrino told reporters, "We have Pires out due to suspension, Fali due to injury. In additi...

Impact Fali is heading back to the injury report just two matches after missing a game due to injury, having appeared to have picked up an issue in training. This will be a brutal loss for the club, as they will now be without one of their key defenders, as he has only missed two starts this season. With that being said, expect Jorge Mere to get the start in his place, replacing Fali until he is fit once again.

FEBRUARY 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Brian Ocampo - Training Friday Ocampo (undisclosed) was viewed on the training pitch ahead of Sunday's match against Celta Vigo.

Impact Ocampo has missed the club's past two matches due to an undisclosed issue but looks to possibly be in line for a return after training just one day before the contest against Celta. He was already expected to return this week, so this should come as no surprise for the attacker. However, he has yet to start a match this season, only earning time as a substitute, so if he is selected for Sunday's game, expect him to only line up on the bench.

FEBRUARY 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Mamadou Mbaye - Absent from training Mbaye (undisclosed) was not present in training of Sunday's match against Celta Vigo.

Impact Mbaye has not stepped foot on the pitch since Dec 10, having been left off while being an unused sub for the last nine matches. He's only made four appearances this season, making two starts.

FEBRUARY 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Alcaraz has started in all of his 23 appearances this season and scored twice. In the previous campaign, he contributed three goals over 31 appearances (22 starts).

FEBRUARY 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Jimenez Juanmi - First start with new team Juanmi registered one shot (zero on goal) in Saturday's 2-0 loss versus Osasuna.

Impact Juanmi was selected to the starting lineup for the first time since arriving from Real Betis on loan. The start marked Juanmi's third successive appearance and the first occasion in which he's played the full 90 minutes. Juanmi is yet to make a monumental impact for Cadiz, having registered just one shot on goal in his three appearances. During the previous campaign with Real Betis, Juanmi contributed four goals and one assist in 25 appearances (12 starts) in all competitions.

FEBRUARY 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Ivan Alejo - Energetic substitute appearance Alejo registered three crosses (one accurate) and three tackles in Saturday's 2-0 loss against Osasuna.

Impact Alejo appeared as a substitute Saturday, coming on at halftime of Cadiz's 0-2 loss to Osasuna. The substitute appearance came on the heels of five straight matches in which he has been selected to the starting XI. Alejo has been given more opportunity this season to contribute, already having made 20 starts, after only having started 13 times the previous campaign. However, the increase in minutes has a not culminated in an increase of production. Alejo has registered just two assists and created ten less chances than he did last season in over 200 more minutes of play.

Impact Piers picked up his fifth yellow card of the season during the first half of Saturday's 0-2 loss to Osasuna. He'll now miss Cadiz's next match when they take on Celta Vigo next Sunday. On the season Piers has contributed well defensively. Over his 19 appearances (12 starts), he's chipped in 38 tackles (21 won) and 12 interceptions.

FEBRUARY 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Jeremias Ledesma - Concedes two in loss Conan Ledesma recorded two saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-0 defeat to Osasuna.

Impact Ledesma was beaten twice by Ante Budimir in the second half of Saturday's 2-0 loss to Osasuna. Ledesma has now conceded two goals in consecutive matches. Overall, Ledesma's performance on the season has resulted in four clean sheets in 22 appearances (two in the previous four appearances), lagging behind his pace of the previous season in which he recorded 12 clean sheets over 34 appearances. He'll face Celta Vigo at home next Sunday.

FEBRUARY 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Brian Ocampo - Left off squad sheet Ocampo is not on the team sheet for Saturday's trip to Osasuna.

FEBRUARY 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

David Gil - Signs new contract Gil has agreed to a new contract to keep him around Cadiz until 2027, the club announced Thursday.

Impact Gil's tenure with Cadiz is no where near the end, as he just signed a three year contract extension after spending the past four seasons with the club. He has so far played 32 games with the team, with four of those coming this season, where he registered 10 saves, two goals allowed and one clean sheet across those four contests. He will now look to get more time starting in the future, hoping that this extension earns him that role in one of the coming seasons.

FEBRUARY 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Javier Hernandez - Back in training Hernandez (hamstring) was featured at training Tuesday working with a ball ahead of Saturday's contest against Osasuna.

Impact Hernandez is finally back out on the training pitch, currently working with a ball after missing the club's past four matches with a hamstring issue. The defender is most likely still a decent ways from a return, having yet to be included in any training with the team up to this point. He could make the team sheet to face Osasuna on Saturday, but if that is the case, it will most likely only be off the bench, as the team will not want to rush one of their regular starters back into play.

FEBRUARY 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sergi Guardiola - Minimal impact in loss Sergi registered two shots (zero on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Friday's 2-0 defeat versus Betis.

Impact Sergi managed two shots off the bench and won his only tackle. He has only made one start all season and does not appear to be relied upon consistently enough to expect an increase in his production in the near future as Cadiz look for an attacking impetus.

FEBRUARY 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Jimenez Juanmi - Shoots twice off the bench Juanmi recorded two shots (one on goal) in Friday's 2-0 loss to Betis. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 52nd minute.

Impact Juanmi came on at halftime with his side down a goal and did little else beyond taking two shots during his time on the pitch. Cadiz have scored the fewest goals in La Liga this season with 15 and may look to Juanmi again as he settles in following his loan recall from Al-Riyadh during the January transfer window.

FEBRUARY 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Robert Navarro - Shoots three times Navarro generated three shots (one on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Friday's 2-0 defeat versus Betis.

Impact Navarro set a new season best with three shots taken against Betis, one of which was one frame. He has shot at least once in six of his last seven contests and will continue to get opportunities as Cadiz search for an attacking spark from somewhere in the side.

FEBRUARY 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Jeremias Ledesma - Dissapoints in loss Conan Ledesma made three saves and allowed two goals in Friday's 2-0 loss against Betis.

Impact Ledesma saw his run of consecutive clean sheets stopped at two as he made three or more saves for the third time in his last six appearances. He faces Osasuna away from home on Saturday.

Impact Hernandez will be kept shelved for a fourth straight match, still having yet to recover from a hamstring issue he picked up in early January. He is still yet to join the group for training but appears to be expected to next week based on the manager's comments. The club will hope for his return next week against Osasuna on Feb. 17, as he has been a regular starter when healthy this season, starting in 16 straight matches at one point this season.
