OUT

Est. Return 2/8/2026
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Hernandez arrived at Betis in January after starring for Columbus Crew in MLS. He wasn't as prolific in Spain but still produced five goals and one assist in 15 league appearances (14 starts). With a full preseason to acclimate, he's expected to lead the line in 2025/26. His per-90 stats of 3.37 shots, 0.86 on target and 1.10 chances created could rise as he gets more comfortable in La Liga. Even then, simply having more time on the pitch in addition to a full offseason with the club should lead to 10-plus goals in this attack.
Training with ball
Hernandez (strain) was spotted training with the ball on Tuesday, he posted on his socials.
ANALYSIS
Hernandez suffered a muscular injury against Oviedo two weeks ago and has shown good progress during his recovery, as he was spotted running and training with the ball. That said, his initial timeline to return is expected to be next week, and the club is unlikely to risk him before he returns to full fitness since he has been an undisputed starter in the frontline for Betis this season. Until he returns, Chimy Avila and Cedric Bakumbu are expected to take his role.
