Andy Pelmard - Should be available Sunday Pelmard (undisclosed) should be available for Sunday's clash against Real Sociedad after resuming team training this week, according to UDLasPalmas.NET.

Impact Pelmard has resumed team training this week and is expected to be available for the squad in Sunday's match against Real Sociedad, marking his return to action for the first time since mid-February. However, he is likely to return to a bench role, as he has primarily been a bench option this season at right-back.

Dinko Horkas - Vital in unlikely appearance Horkas made four saves and allowed one goal in Monday's 1-1 draw versus Celta Vigo.

Impact Horkas likely was not expecting to step onto the pitch against Celta Vigo on Monday. However, a brutal injury to Jasper Cillessen forced the usual keeper off the pitch, which resulted in action for Horkas. And he made the most of it. In 63 minutes played, the Croatian goalie made four saves, three diving saves, and two saves from inside his own box. No timetable has been provided yet for Cillessen's return, so Horkas will in all likelihood start against Real Sociedad on Sunday.

Scott McKenna - Solid at the back McKenna had two clearances in Monday's 1-1 draw against Celta Vigo.

Impact McKenna provided much needed stability in defense for Las Palmas in their 1-1 draw with Celta Vigo. In 90 minutes played, the Scottish international won all nine of his duels, made two clearances, and he even made seven passes into the final third. With the regular goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen being injured for the foreseeable future, Las Palmas will heavily rely on McKenna to continue to be a stalwart at the back for the club as they continue their relegation battle.

Oliver McBurnie - Makes most of limited action McBurnie assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Monday's 1-1 draw versus Celta Vigo.

Impact Celta Vigo dominated possession against Las Palmas on Monday, so McBurnie was kept quiet for most of the match. However, he was able to capitalize on his limited in-game opportunities by providing an assist for Alberto Moleiro's equalizer at the start of the second half. McBurnie also won all six of his aerial duels and made three passes into the final third. He will hope to have another steady performance in attack this Sunday against Real Sociedad.

Alberto Moleiro - Good performance in road draw Alberto Moleiro scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Monday's 1-1 draw versus Celta Vigo.

Impact Moleiro was crucial in securing a point away from home for Las Palmas on Monday. In 88 minutes played, the 21 year old scored one goal from his only shot of the game, created one chance, made four passes into the final third, and won six duels. Moleiro now has goals in back-to-back starts for Celta Vigo. A late season surge from the young winger would be a great aid to Las Palmas who currently are inside the relegation zone by just one point.

Jasper Cillessen - Brought off injured Cillessen was brought off with an apparent injury during Monday's trip to Celta Vigo.

Impact Cillessen didn't even make it to half time before an injury forced him to the sideline. The goalkeeper was replaced by Dinko Horkas, who would be in line for starting minutes if Cillessen is sidelined for any significant period of time.

Chelsea continues to bet on youth after splashing $80M on pair from Sporting Portugal

Chelsea has agreed to spend more than 74 millions euros ($80 million) to recruit a pair of youngsters from Sporting Portugal

MARCH 20, 2025 • Associated Press

Dario Essugo - Suspension cleared Essugo completed his one-game suspension for the red card he received in their last game and will be eligible to face Celta Vigo on March. 31.

Impact Essugo missed Friday's 2-2 draw against Alaves due to suspension and is available for selection for their next contest after the international break. He has been a regular starter this season and should be expected to return to the starting XI immediately now that he is an option.

MARCH 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Viti Rozada - Back from suspension Rozada completed his one-game suspension for yellow cards accumulation and will be eligible to face Celta Vigo on March. 31.

Impact Rozada missed Friday's 2-2 draw against Alaves and is now available to play for their next contest after the international break. He has been a regular starter this season and should be expected to return to the starting XI immediately now that he is an option.

Javi Munoz - Creative in attack Javi Munoz generated one shot (zero on goal) and four crosses (zero accurate) in Friday's 2-2 draw versus Deportivo Alaves.

Impact Munoz showed sparks of creativity in Las Palmas' 2-2 draw with Deportivo Alaves on Friday. In 90 minutes played, the attacking midfielder completed both of his dribbles, completed six of his nine long ball passes, and made seven passes into the final third. Still, the continued lack of tangible output will be frustrating for Munoz, who has not registered a goal contribution since November 30. Hopefully the international break will do him some good and he can get back on track on March 31 against Celta Vigo.

Fabio Silva - Decent showing Fabio Silva scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Friday's 2-2 draw versus Deportivo Alaves.

Impact Silva put in a solid display against Deportivo Alaves on Friday. In 90 minutes played, the Portuguese international scored one goal from two shots (one on target, one blocked), created two chances, and completed one of his two dribbles. Silva now has two goals in his last four La Liga appearances, and eight goals total on the season. After the international break, a clash with Celta Vigo could prove to be a good opportunity for Silva to improve those numbers.

MARCH 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Alberto Moleiro - Propels Alberto Moleiro scored one goal to go with five shots (three on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Friday's 2-2 draw against Deportivo Alaves.

Impact Moleiro had one of his best performances of the season on Friday and helped Las Palmas draw against Deportivo Alaves 2-2. In 90 minutes played, he completed the most dribbles in the match with three, scored one goal from five shots (three on target, one off, one blocked), and created two chances. The goal was Maleiro's first since October, and he will hope to build on his momentum after the international break when Las Palmas take on Celta Vigo on March 31.

MARCH 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Jasper Cillessen - Average performance in draw Cillessen made one save and allowed two goals in Friday's 2-2 draw versus Deportivo Alaves.

Impact Cillessen had a middling showing in net as Las Palmas drew with Deportivo Alaves 2-2. The Dutch keeper made one save, conceded two goals, made no diving saves or saves from inside his own box, but did complete nine of his 11 long ball passes. To his credit, the goals both came from good offensive positions, so there was not much he could have done to stop them. He will hope to have a better showing against Celta Vigo on March 31 after the international break.

Impact Marmol missed Sunday's game against Betis due to an ankle injury but could be an option for Friday's clash against Alaves after training with the team on Wednesday. He will likely be a late call for the game. If cleared, he could return directly to the starting lineup in central defense. If unavailable, Juan Herzog will likely replace him again.

Sandro Ramirez - Creates two chances Sunday Ramirez recorded three crosses (two accurate) and one corner in Sunday's 1-0 defeat to Betis.

Impact Ramirez created two chances in Sunday's match, his fourth match this season with multiple chances created. He also recorded two accurate crosses and took one corner on the attack but failed to take a single shot for the first time since Nov. 3 at Atletico Madrid. He was subbed off in the 73rd minute for Oliver McBurnie.

Fabio Silva - Three shots in loss Silva recorded three shots (zero on goal) in Sunday's 1-0 loss to Betis.

He did not end up being much of a threat though as he failed to put a shot on target or create a chance. He put in solid work on the defensive end though as he won two tackles, made three clearances and won seven duels in his full 90 minutes of action.

Cillessen also came up big just before the final whistle with a save on Isco's penalty, his third penalty save of the season. He has now conceded a goal in nine consecutive matches, conceding 18 goals over that stretch. He faces a crucial relegation battle Friday versus Deportivo Alaves, a side which has scored 30 goals through 27 league matches this season.
