Jose Maria Gimenez
30-Year-Old
Atlético Madrid
La Liga
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Gimenez was busy throughout the 2024/25 season, recording 115 clearances, 27 interceptions and 26 tackles across 27 appearances (20 starts). The Uruguayan international was a regular at center-back, but some rotation would be surprising if Clement Lenglet and Robin Le Normand are also fit. His upside is capped since the only area where he contributes reliably is defensive stats such as clearances, tackles and interceptions. That said, Atleti's defensive prowess and tendency to secure clean sheets could boost Gimenez's outlook, as usual.
On bench Sunday
Gimenez (hamstring) is on the bench for Sunday's clash against Real Sociedad.
ANALYSIS
Gimenez is no longer sidelined following a four-game absence but could be ready only for limited minutes as either Marc Pubill's or David Hancko's substitute. The Uruguayan has made seven league appearances in the 2025/26 campaign, tallying more than three clearances in five of those contests.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could head to Saudi Arabia
Two teams in the Saudi Pro League are interested in signing Gimenez, according to Diego Paez de Roque of El Desmarque.
ANALYSIS
Gimenez is one of the most reliable defensive alternatives at Atletico Madrid, but it wouldn't be shocking if the defender changes teams in the summer. After all, Atletico are keen on signing Cristian Romero, and they already feature Clement Lenglet and Robin Le Normand on the current roster. If the contract is attractive, which is sure to be the case, expect Gimenez to consider his exit from the Wanda Metropolitano.
