He's yet to score or assist in five games across all competitions, and if he can't crack the scoresheet, then his fantasy upside gets reduced considerably.

Plays fullback in draw Llorente created one chance and kept a clean sheet as a right-back during Monday's scoreless draw with Sweden in Group E.

Impact Llorente was given the start in defense in a tactical wrinkle meant to fit in another dynamic midfielder instead of trying to start Cesar Azpilicueta or Adam Traore in that spot. Though Llorente performed well, the end result of the match suggest that this was a decision not necessary to earning the victory. As a result, it's important to consider who starts at right-back over games against Poland and Slovakia, with Traore being the most attacking of the three.

12 goals, 11 assists in league win Llorente scored 12 goals and provided 11 assists in 37 appearances during Atletico Madrid's league-winning 2020/21 season.

Impact Llorente was the talk of the team for much of the year as he made quick work of limited chances to score or assist in all but a few games. Maintaining this attacking role for Atleti shouldn't be too hard next season, but doing the same while with Spain for the Euros could be a little more difficult depending on how the team is set up. With La Roja's traditional focus on keeping possession, Llorente is still worth monitoring if he earns a place in the lineup for his country.
