Picks up fifth yellow card Soldado registered one off-target shot, one clearance and a yellow card in 14 minutes during Sunday's 3-1 win over Alaves.

Impact Soldado returned after missing two games with a hamstring injury, but will not play again in the season. The forward couldn't do much during his limited time in the field, but picked up his fifth yellow card. He is therefore suspended for Friday's visit to Rayo Vallecano and will miss their season finale.

Out for season with injury Soldado will miss the remainder of the season after suffering a hamstring injury in training, Levante announced Friday.

Impact Soldado injured his hamstring in training last week and has been ruled out for the final stretch of the season. The 36-year-old tallied three goals and two assists in 17 La Liga appearances (seven starts) in this campaign.

Barcelona wins, delays Madrid's looming title celebration

Barcelona has defeated Real Sociedad 1-0 to make sure Real Madrid will have to wait at least another week to celebrate the Spanish league title

Scores off bench against Sevilla Soldado subbed into Thursday's match against Sevilla in the 76th minute and he scored a goal in the 3-2 defeat.

Impact Soldado gave his side hope with a late goal to cut the deficit on Thursday, but it wasn't enough to sneak a result against Sevilla. He now has goals off the bench in consecutive games in La Liga, and he'll be looking for another one next weekend against Valencia, which have conceded 48 times in 33 matches this season.

APRIL 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Scores against former club Soldado scored one goal from two shots (one on goal) during Sunday's 4-1 win over Granada.

Impact Soldado picked up a late goal against his former side, which he helped on their long runs into the Copa del Rey and Europa League over the last couple of seasons, before pushing them further to relegation this time around. With one goal and one assist but just 25 minutes played in the last four matches, Soldado is still capable of producing when it counts but doesn't play for long stretches within many contests.

APRIL 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Available against Barcelona Soldado (hamstring) is in Levante's match day squad for Sunday's clash against Barcelona.

Impact Soldado missed on game due to a hamstring injury, but he has recovered and is back on the bench Sunday.

APRIL 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to training Soldado (hamstring) was back in training with Levante on Monday.

Impact Soldado missed Saturday's victory over Villarreal with a hamstring injury, but he has partially returned to training already and might be fit enough to feature against Barcelona next weekend.

APRIL 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Assists as substitute Soldado assisted one goal from his only chance created in 15 minutes during Saturday's 3-1 loss at Osasuna.

Impact Soldado subbed on in the 75th minute and assisted Roger Marti's goal one minute later. That was his second assist in the season, but it wasn't enough to avoid the loss. The forward started only seven games in the season, and will now look for more playing time when they host Villarreal on Apr 2.

Barcelona scores late, stays unbeaten against rival Espanyol

Espanyol came within a minute of ending its 13-year winless run against Barcelona in the Spanish league after conceding in the sixth minute of stoppage time in a 2-2 draw at home

FEBRUARY 13, 2022

Sees red card in loss Soldado had one foul in eight minutes of play in the 4-2 loss to Betis on Sunday.

Impact After subbing on in the 66th minute, Soldado was shown a red card only eight minutes later. With limited playing time, it is difficult to make a big contribution, but hopefully that will change in the next match against Atletico Madrid.

Scores goal against Mallorca Soldado scored a goal and created a chance in Saturday's 2-0 victory against Mallorca.

Impact Soldado made his first La Liga start since early November on Saturday, and he opened the scoring with his first goal of the season. The 36-year-old had a semi-consistent spell in the lineup in late October, but he has mostly been used off the bench since then and this performance likely won't change that in the long run.

JANUARY 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Sent off against Valencia Soldado was shown a red card in the 95th minute of Monday's defeat against Valencia following his second booking of the match. He assisted a goal after only being subbed into the g...

Impact Soldado had an eventful 15 minutes or so of playing time on Monday, setting up a late Enis Bardhi goal but also receiving two yellow cards and getting sent off. He will be suspended for the game against Villarreal on Jan. 3, but he hasn't started a La Liga match since early November.

DECEMBER 20, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Logs 64 minutes in loss Soldado played for 64 minutes of Sunday's 2-1 loss to Deportivo Alaves.

Impact Soldado played a pesky role in the attack but couldn't generate an opportunity for himself. While his place as a starter is likely to remain, it will take a change in his fortunes for Soldado to become as valuable in fantasy. Up next is a visit from Athletic Club.

NOVEMBER 7, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Takes two shots in loss Soldado took two shots (one on goal) and conceded a yellow card in 80 minutes of Monday's 3-0 loss to Granada.

Impact Soldado couldn't get much going against his last club and hasn't done much beyond logging three shots on goal in his three appearances since returning from a hamstring injury. He'll get another reasonable matchup against Deportivo Alaves, which are tied for the third-most goals conceded to forwards in La Liga.

NOVEMBER 2, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Two shots in return Soldado (hamstring) had two shots (one on target), created one chance and made two clearances during Saturday's scoreless draw against Getafe.

Impact Soldado played for the first time after suffering an injury during his Levante debut and, despite being kept at bay for most of the time, had a couple of moments. The most important thing here is that the striker was able to play until the 89th minute, which indicates that he's fully recovered. Soldado will try to open his scoring account during Oct. 24 visit to Sevilla.

OCTOBER 16, 2021

Starting against Getafe Soldado (hamstring) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Getafe.

Impact Soldado makes an immediate return to the starting XI Saturday, somewhat out of necessity. He hasn't played since the opener two months ago when he injured his hamstring and was forced off in the 51st minute.

OCTOBER 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to preliminary squad Soldado (hamstring) is in the preliminary squad for Saturday's clash with Getafe.

Impact Soldado is in the preliminary squad, and returns at the perfect time as Levante deal with a massive amount of injuries across the squad. The forward could very well slot straight back into the starting XI depending on his level of fitness.

OCTOBER 15, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Remains out Soldado (hamstring) is out for Saturday's clash with Mallorca after failing to make the preliminary squad.

Impact Soldado was originally expected to miss six weeks, but he has now missed closer to eight and doesn't seem set to return any time soon. The forward hasn't really made his mark in the starting XI and with Dani Gomez hurt it may fall on Sergio Leon to lead the attack.

OCTOBER 1, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Out six weeks Soldado picked up a right hamstring and adductor injury during Saturday's 1-1 draw with Cadiz.

Impact Soldado only lasted 51 minutes into his Levante debut before suffering a debilitating muscular problem. While he's out, the lineup while likely look similar to how it did last season, though Dani Gomez picked up his own injury and Sergio Leon could get more time in the team over the coming weeks.

AUGUST 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Signs with Levante Soldado joined Levante from Granada on Monday. He's committed to a two-year contract with his new club.

Impact Soldado was a major veteran presence during Granada's two successful years back in La Liga as he scored 16 goals in 62 games. It's not clear why motivated his departure, though he's now able to return to the city of his birth where he scored 59 goals for Valencia between 2010 and 2013. At this stage of his career, Soldado could be the forward his new club were looking for after a season of struggling to play the same lineup for more than a few games at a time.

JUNE 30, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Staying one more season Soldado agreed to a one-year contract extension with Granada on Monday.

Impact Soldado has been a key veteran presence for this club over the past two seasons as he helped them first qualify for Europe and then top Napoli in the quarterfinals of the Europa League. He's also been nicely productive with 16 league goals scored for Granada, and he doesn't need to be any more productive next season, especially if Luis Javier Suarez shows enough improvement to become the full-time starter.
