Pau Cubarsi
19-Year-Old
Barcelona
La Liga
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Cubarsi featured in 35 La Liga games (29 starts) in 2024/25, contributing three assists from central defense. He earned his place in the starting XI and rose to the top of the center-back hierarchy with composed defending and intelligent positioning, especially for his age. His consistent performances helped the team navigate injury spells and secure the league title. Heading into 2025/26, Cubarsi is expected to be a full-time starter and headed for 30-plus starts. If he continues to progress, he could become one of the most reliable and solid young defenders in Europe. The goal for him and Barcelona is to secure more clean sheets, though given the Hansi Flick system, that may be hard to count on.
Records five clearance
Cubarsi recorded one shot (zero on goal) in Friday's 1-0 win over Uruguay.
ANALYSIS
Cubarsi would see the start once again Friday, having yet to leave the field for Spain at the World Cup. He would see a decent match in the defense that would lead to a clean sheet, notching five clearances. He also continues to see plenty of touches as Spain controls possession, with over 80 passes completed in all three games.
