Martim Neto - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Competing for midfield minutes Neto has made four appearances and two starts for Elche through seven LaLiga matches, totaling 161 minutes.

Impact Neto has remained part of Elche's midfield rotation without establishing himself as an automatic starter. The 23-year-old has three shots but no goals or assists across 161 minutes. With Villar commanding a regular place and several other midfielders competing for minutes, Neto's workload should keep fluctuating, which will ultimately hurt his fantasy upside across all formats.

Returns to bench Neto (undisclosed) is fit for Saturday's friendly against Toulouse, included on the bench, according to the club.

Impact Neto had been dealing with discomfort that ruled him out of the earlier friendly against Cordoba, so his inclusion in the matchday squad now confirms he has recovered. He made 25 LaLiga appearances last season, contributing two goals and five assists, and his bench role positions him to build back toward regular minutes as Elche continues preseason preparations.

Suffers from discomfort Neto (undisclosed) is dealing with discomfort and was not available for Friday's friendly against Cordoba, according to Ismael Martinez of Todo Alicante.

Impact Neto made 25 LaLiga appearances for Elche last season, contributing two goals and five assists across 1,354 minutes, establishing himself as a regular contributor in midfield since joining from Benfica last summer. His current discomfort is a setback to monitor, and his path back to full training will be worth tracking as Elche continues its preseason preparations.

Impact With six corner kicks and five crosses, Neto has a good baseline of service to intrigue managers who roster him. However, he'll need to be more accurate to take advantage of a great matchup coming up against Oviedo. The last-place team has given up 48 goals in La Liga action this season.

Scores as substitute Sunday Neto scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and two chances created in Sunday's 4-0 win against Rayo Vallecano.

Impact Neto finished a fast association play with Josan to increase the hosts' lead in stoppage time during the win. The Portuguese made a bigger impact as a substitute in this game than in his previous two starts, though it's unclear if he'll return to the initial lineup as he remains in contention with the consistent duo of Alvaro Nunez and Aleix Febas. In any case, Neto will look to improve on his tallies of one goal and three assists as soon as league action resumes in 2026.

This was the third assist over 10 appearances for the midfielder this season and he'll hope this helps him to get more starts in upcoming games.

Impact Neto was in the starting squad for the second game in a row for Elche, contributing with three shots, one chance created and two tackles before being forced off in the second half due to a groin injury. The midfielder will likely be assessed in the coming hours to determine the extent of his injury and whether he has to miss some time. If the injury proves to be significant, Ali Houary will likely replace him against Osasuna on Thursday.

Gets assist in draw Neto tallied an assist off the bench in Elche's 1-1 draw with Real Betis on Monday.

Impact The substitute made an immediate impact with his new club and should have confidence going into the next match. However, he has a tough challenge Saturday should he make an appearance against Atletico Madrid, a side which only conceded 30 goals in La Liga a year ago.

Signs with Elche Neto completed a move to Elche from Benfica, the club announced.

Impact Neto spent last season on loan with Rio Ave and has no made the move to Elche. The midfielder faced a tough path to playing time with Benfica, but should have more chances for minutes in the newly-promoted Elche midfield. Neto isn't overly creative in midfield, scoring twice and creating three assists across 54 appearances in the Portuguese league.
