After a very tough start to the season, Nicolas Pépé is back to delivering stellar performances. In Thursday's 1-1 draw in Round 33 of the Spanish league, he scored for his team.

Nicolas Pépé has now tallied 6 goals and 4 assists in 31 LaLiga appearances, starting in 22 of those matches. That’s three more goals than his debut season, and there are still four rounds left to play.

These numbers confirm the former Arsenal winger is back at his best and brimming with confidence, after enduring a lengthy struggle this season and off-field issues that denied him a spot in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.
Thanks to his performances, the 30-year-old winger is now pushing to boost his chances of representing his country at the 2026 World Cup.
