Key midfielder for Alaves
Blanco has started six of Alaves's first seven matches this season in La Liga but was benched for the derby draw at Athletic Club.
Analysis: Blanco remains one of Alaves's most important midfielders and drew transfer interest from Italy, France, Greece, Saudi Arabia and the United States this summer, though he turned down a move. His contract runs through June 2027, and from January he will be free to negotiate with other clubs, adding uncertainty to his long-term future. For now he remains a first-choice option in central midfield, contributing seven shots, 16 tackles, 13 interceptions and eight clearances in 526 minutes.
Assists Wednesday
Antonio Blanco assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and four chances created in Wednesday's 1-0 victory versus Barcelona.
Analysis: Blanco provided one assist during Wednesday's surprise win over Barcelona. It was a nice return in a difficult match, as he could have had even more goal contributions with better finishing ahead of him. He finished with four chances created during the narrow upset over the newly-crowned champions.
