Diego Llorente
32-Year-Old
Betis
La Liga
OUT
Injury Thigh
Est. Return 1/4/2026
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Llorente was a cornerstone of the Betis defense last season, leading the team in completed passes (1,378), clearances (152), and minutes played (2,522). He was a regular starter at center-back when healthy, though a hamstring injury required surgery and kept him out of the final seven league matches. He's expected to be fully fit for the start of the 2025/26 campaign and should remain one of the first names on the team sheet after posting seven clean sheets in 29 starts last season.
Suffers new setback
Llorente (thigh) was forced off in the 7th minute of Monday's 0-0 draw against Rayo Vallecano after suffering a new injury that will likely make him miss the rest of the year, according to Marca.
ANALYSIS
Llorente has been struggling with injuries this season and suffered a new one on Monday, as he was forced off in the 7th minute against Rayo Vallecano, holding his thigh and receiving ice treatment while sitting on the bench. This new issue will likely sideline him for the rest of the year and is tough, as it comes at the first time this season that he was starting two consecutive games. His absence will push Natan and Marc Bartra to pair in central defense for upcoming fixtures.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Aston Villa showing interest
Aston Villa are keen on making a move for Llorente, according to Ficherio.
ANALYSIS
Llorente has been one of Betis' best players this season, and his versatility on the defensive end could be useful for several teams. He's having a bounce-back season after a subpar 2023/24 campaign with Roma, and this means teams should start knocking on Betis' door soon to see whether the Spaniard will be available or not.
