Working on recovery Nteka (strain) picked up an injury during last Friday's training session and missed Saturday's clash with Barcelona, but has been training and is listed as questionable for the upc...

Impact Since joining the club in February on loan from Rayo, the forward has appeared in the starting XI four times in six matches played, but failing to get his first goal yet for the team. If fit, he will likely start on the bench Saturday, with Lucas Boye the expected starter.

Loaned to Elche Nteka has joined Elche on a six-month loan from Rayo Vallecano, the club announced Tuesday.

Impact Nteka's role with Rayo has decreased this season as he's been limited to just 10 La Liga appearances off the bench. The 25-year-old is now moving to Elche for the rest of the campaign in hopes of sparking some sort of revival for the bottom-of-the-table club.

Finishes out suspension Nteka completed his two-match suspension during Monday's 3-2 win over Real Madrid.

Impact Nteka was absent for two of his team's three wins in the final three games after some rash behavior saw him dismissed in the 5-1 win over Cadiz on Oct. 22. He's made six appearances off the bench and is unlikely to offer much more than in his role as a substitute.

Earns two-game suspension Nteka had his suspension extended to two games by the RFEF following a red card earned in Saturday's 5-1 win over Cadiz.

Impact Nteka has come off the bench in all six appearances this season but a red card taken late into Saturday's match leaves him ineligible to play in Saturday's trip to Sevilla and Monday's match against Real Madrid.

OCTOBER 26, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Sent off against Cadiz Nteka was sent off in the 87th minute of Saturday's match against Cadiz.

Impact Nteka earned a late dismissal for a high challenge that was caught after a VAR check. As he only entered as a substitute in Saturday's match, his absence for Saturday's trip to Sevilla shouldn't be too important to the team.

OCTOBER 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Debut in win Nteka played for five minutes of Friday's 2-0 win over Espanyol.

Impact Nteka started 16 times in 34 appearances last season but the arrival of Sergio Camello has seemingly pushed him down the depth chart. That's only likely to make his fantasy value worse after scoring just three times during the 2021/22 campaign.

AUGUST 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Creates chance in loss Nteka made a clearance and an interception in last week's 4-2 defeat against Levante. He also created a chance in the match.

Impact Nteka was a very useful squad player for Rayo this campaign, scoring three goals in 34 La Liga appearances (16 starts) all across the forward line. But the 24-year-old will want to solidify a spot in the lineup next season as the club will try to improve upon an unexpected 12th-placed finish in the table.

Two interceptions against Mallorca Nteka made two interceptions in a 2-1 defeat to Mallorca on Sunday.

Impact Nteka had an average outing for the visiting side. The 24-year-old made two interceptions. Other than that, Nteka also made a clearance.

MAY 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Win six aerial duels against Alaves Nteka won six aerial duels in a 1-0 defeat to Deportivo Alaves on Saturday.

Impact Nteka had a decent outing for the losing team. The 24-year-old won six aerial duels, most by any player in the team. Other than that, Nteka also completed three dribbles.

APRIL 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Makes one tackle at Celta Nteka made one tackle (won) in Saturday's 2-0 loss at Celta.

Impact Nteka had a quiet outing and registered just one tackle won before subbing off in the 65th minute. The forward started for the eighth time in 19 appearances, but has yet to play the full 90 minutes in the season. He will now look for more playing time against Osasuna on Saturday.

FEBRUARY 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Takes two shots in loss Nteka took two shots (one on target) and won one of two tackles in Saturday's 2-1 defeat against Real Madrid. He also made a clearance and an interception in the match.

Impact Nteka was in the starting lineup on Saturday for just the second time in Rayo's last eight La Liga games, but he didn't do much against Real Madrid to convince manager Andoni Iraola to make him a permanent member of the XI. He does have three goals this season however, and 35-year-old Radamel Falcao probably won't be able to play in every single game, so Nteka will still have an important part to play with his side, even if it's as a substitute sometimes.

NOVEMBER 7, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Scores in win Nteka scored once on one shot during Sunday's 2-1 win over Elche.

Impact Nteka came off the bench and scored his second goal of the season during Sunday's win. The forward has somewhat fallen out of favor in the starting XI, but has been solid when he gets a chance. Nteka has upside when starting, but off the bench he's underwhelmed, he's only worth the flyer if he's in the starting XI going forward.

OCTOBER 20, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Four shots against Levante Nteka had four shots in a 1-1 draw against Levante on Saturday.

Impact Nteka had an average game for the visitors. The 23-year-old had four shots but only one was on target. Other than that, Nteka also provided three key passes.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Scores in win Nteka scored one goal from three shots (two on goal) and created two chances during Sunday's 4-0 win over Granada.

Impact Nteka has started two-out-of-three matches to begin the season but it took until this game for his first shot and goal. Now that he's set for some softer matchups after the international break, Nteka could get into better form over the coming weeks.

AUGUST 30, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Starts in opener Nteka logged 71 minutes during Sunday's 3-0 loss to Sevilla.

Impact Nteka had picked up an injury during the preseason but was already back to start the first game. Without a shot or cross to show for, it wasn't an ideal debut for fantasy or otherwise.

AUGUST 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Leaves with injury Nteka picked up an injury during Sunday's friendly against Leganes, according to manager Andoni Iraola via Raul Gonzalez of Union Rayo.

Impact Nteka has until Sunday's trip to Sevilla to recover his fitness, though the new signing may not be a starter just yet even if he was ready to play. The impending return of Jose Angel Pozo will help out the midfield whether or not Nteka is available.

AUGUST 9, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Signs with Rayo Nteka joined Rayo Vallecano on a five-year contract after transferring from Fuenbralada on Wednesday.

Impact Nteka is an impressively versatile attacker with minutes logged at attacking-midfielder and every position on the front line. He's also managed to improve in production with each passing year as his former club climbed the ladder, most recently scoring eight goals and providing two assists in 38 games last season. Whether or not Rayo manage to stay in La Liga, Nteka looks to be plenty promising ahead of his first chance in the top division.
