Asier Osambela
OSA
Late goal off the bench
Asier Osambela scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) in Sunday's 2-0 victory over Racing Santander.
Analysis: Osambela added an insurance goal late for Osasuna to wrap up the win and grab three points. He could make an impact off the bench again when Osasuna battle Sevilla, a team with a minus-2 goal differential through nine matches in LaLiga.
Subbed off with cramps
Osambela (undisclosed) was substituted in the 75th minute of Wednesday's match against Atletico Madrid due to cramps, with no initial concern of a more serious injury.
Analysis: Osambela has recorded no goal this season for Osasuna, having been handed his second start of the campaign in a lineup with numerous changes, forming in midfield alongside Lucas Torro before being replaced by Romain Del Castillo. His recovery will be assessed ahead of Saturday's match against Rayo Vallecano as coach Luis Miguel Ramis looks to have some options back available.
Suspension cleared
Osambela is back in contention after serving his ban due to the red card he received in his last La Liga match.
Analysis: Osambela was used mostly as a substitute before missing a couple of league games through suspension. Without consistent time on the field, he lacks guaranteed fantasy upside but could serve as an occasional substitute option behind Jon Moncayola and Lucas Torro for the remainder of the season.
