Real MadridScores game winner
Espi scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 win over Espanyol.
Analysis: Espi came on for the final 10 minutes Saturday and scored the game-winner in stoppage time to give Real Madrid all three points. He also recorded a key pass and a successful dribble despite his limited time on the pitch. The new signing made 25 appearances for Levante last season, including 13 starts, and scored 11 goals, showing he can be a reliable scoring option off the bench while already proving he can find the net in La Liga.
Signs with Real Madrid
Espi signed a contract with Real Madrid through June 2031, joining from Levante, according to the club.
Analysis: Espi scored 20 goals across 66 appearances in three seasons at Levante, earning recognition as the league's best U23 player last season. The 21 year old forward, capped for Spain at U19 and U20 level, is expected to serve as the backup to Kylian Mbappe, with new manager Jose Mourinho reportedly wanting an aerial presence in the box as a different attacking profile to complement his star forward.
Scores in last game
Espi scored one goal to go with five shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 2-1 defeat versus Betis.
Analysis: Espi tallied a goal on five shots to close a stellar domestic campaign for Levante. The club did get to stay up because La Liga uses head-to-head points as a tiebreaker instead of goal differential, so Espi should be able to turn in another productive season at the top Spanish level next season for the only club he's ever known.
Scores in win
Espi scored one goal to go with five shots (two on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 2-0 win over Mallorca.
Analysis: Espi was consistently putting up shots and was rewarded with a goal, giving Levante a boost in their push to avoid relegation. The forward has a decent opportunity to find the back of the net against Betis in the finale, as the side has allowed 47 goals on the season.
Scores lone goal for team
Espi scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 5-1 defeat versus Villarreal.
Analysis: Espi recorded the only goal for Levante on Saturday to keep his scoring run going. He now has eight goals in a span of nine matches, recording 27 shots (15 on target), who has turned it around after opening the first six months of the campaign as a limited option off the bench.
