Cristiano Ronaldo has finally been priced up by Fantasy Premier League (FPL) following the completion of his transfer from Juventus to Manchester United.

The 36-year-old striker has been listed as a forward in FPL and comes in at £12.5m, making him the joint-most expensive player in the game alongside Mohamed Salah.

Ronaldo is £1.0m pricier than Romelu Lukaku (£11.5m) and some £400k dearer than Bruno Fernandes (£12.1m), who many Fantasy managers are seemingly offloading in order to fund a move for his incoming compatriot.

The former Juve and Real Madrid man’s FPL price, as is the case with all new additions, will be locked for seven days upon his Tuesday lunchtime inclusion in the game.

Fernandes remains, for now, the most-owned player in the game despite the 100,000+ sales since the Gameweek 3 deadline.

    These new articles are being raised quicker than a tent at Glastonbury.

      Absolutely fuming that my rolling deadline day page is being shunted off top spot for a glorified hot topic

  4. The Final Boss

    Expected price.

    1. SADIO SANÉ
      • 11 Years

  5. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Aa expected I guess, and considering my first thought was 13m I'll definitely take that

  6. YEAH PITCH!
    • 7 Years

    Bachmann

    TAA | Shaw | Veltman

    Benrahma | Salah | Bruno | Raph | Son

    Toney | Antonio

    Foster / White / Livaremento / Perica

    Many thanks

    1. Rock n Grohl
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Yeah looks good to save. Nice team.

      1. DavvaMC
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        Thanks, then the Ronaldo headache after that!

  8. Kodap
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Who's the best 5.0m defender to get in?

    1. Dr. Rog
      • 17 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Tierney

      1. Limbo
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        Lol

    2. Zladan
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      I fee there is value in Marcal, Tanganga or Semedo as the 5m or less picks.

    3. LAMELA_AND_CONSUELA
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Semedo or Saiss

  9. Bielsa's Bucket
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Bruno > Demarai Gray
    Ivan Toney > Ronaldo

    -8

    Sigh... why have I been sucked in.

    1. Hiiler
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Wouldn't take hits for Ronaldo otherwise bruno for fernandes move is good I think. 🙂

    2. Invincibles
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      I think I'd wait a week to save -4. Is Torres on your radar?

    3. Bielsa's Bucket
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      I'll wait, but I don't think the price rises will

  10. Hiiler
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Ronaldo's price now official. Is this price locked in for a week now as seemed to be the deal with Lukaku's price?

    1. DavvaMC
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Yes locked for 7 days.

      1. Dr. Rog
        • 17 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        actually locked to the next deadline, because the price lock can be increased in the case of an IB

      2. Hiiler
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        Good to know then I can wait a bit with that transfer. Although would have money for him even if it weren't locked. Still good to get him as cheap as possible.

      3. Zladan
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        7 days after his first gameweek.

    2. Haa-lala-land
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      The article says this.

      It literally says this.

  11. benpurser
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    1) Bruno, Ings, Toney -> Torres, DCL, Ronaldo for a -8 (I have the exact money)

    2) Bruno, Ings -> Torres, Ronaldo for a -4

    3) Ings -> DCL for 1FT

    Thoughts?

  12. Bavarian
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Bruno-Ings > Grealish-Ronaldo
    YES or NO

    1. antis0cial
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      I'd prefer Jota or Torres over Grealish, but yes.

  13. Crouching Tiger
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Torres, Grealish or Jota, that's the current dilemma.

    1. Stranger Mings
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Issue is all potential rotation risks?

      1. Crouching Tiger
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        Indeed. But not much else available in the £8M bracket.

        1. Stranger Mings
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 day ago

          I only have 7.5 and was thinking benrahma, and mount more secure but would love to have torres

  14. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Looks straightforward for me now...

    Assuming:
    - Ronaldo starts vs NEW
    - Firmino is out injured for at least a month
    - DCL is fit to play GW4

    Fernandes, Scarlett, Grealish > Ronaldo, Gilmour, Jota -4

    Gives me:

    Sanchez Foster
    TAA Shaw Coufal Ayling Livramento
    Salah Jota Raphinha Benrahma Gilmour
    Ronaldo DCL Antonio

    1. Karan_G14
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Looks great imo!

    2. Zimo
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Go for Sissoko over Gilmour

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        Why? Gilmour on corners.

    3. Weeb Kakashi
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      I doubt Firmino will be out for that long.

    4. antis0cial
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Looks good to me. Not sure we will know for definite if Ronaldo will start.

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        There are quite a few assumptions in there. Will definitely wait until late next week before doing anything.

    5. Visible Confusion
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      I'm on my WC so I tried to set this up but it ended up being -1.5 on budget. This is my first season playing so I probably messed something up. Still learning.

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        I have really good team value.

        I had DCL, Antonio and Benrahma to start, sold Tsimikas for 0.1m profit as well and this team has 0.0m ITB.

        1. Haa-lala-land
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 day ago

          My team value is 99.7 ! 🙁

        2. Visible Confusion
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 day ago

          Thanks! That's how new I am, I didn't even understand team value until a couple days ago. From your team I switched Ronaldo to Lukaku and Benrahma to Bergwijn to get me at budget. But on the WC so can still make some moves.

  15. jack88

    Bruno+ son+ coufal or
    Ronaldo +TAA+ Jota?

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      B

  16. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Ronald's final season was so underwhelming

    206 points with penalties & DFK's

    As a midfielder too

    The one before was a bit better at 286 mind you

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Ronaldo as well as Ronald

      1. The Wise Owl
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        I prefer Burger King

    2. Baines on Toast...
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Different bonus system too

    3. Firminooooo
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Will you go for him Mr Maximus?

    4. Zladan
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      This was before midfielder clean sheets.

      1. Zladan
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        And different bonus!

      2. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        Mids got clean sheets back in the day. But different bonus, yes.

  17. chaser123
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Is Ronaldo worth a -4?

    Ings + Bruno > Ronaldo + Jota

    Yay or Nay?

    1. Crouching Tiger
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Probably going to be forced to protect team value & possibility to get Ronaldo in without destroying complete team balance...

    2. Hiiler
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      -8 would be nay from me -4 depends, but probably nay as well and would wait for FT's.

    3. FPL Brains
      • Has Moderation Rights
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Think I'll consider it if Bruno is at risk of dropping 0.2. 0.1 drop doesn't effect anything.

  18. Lukakus Unit
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    How long is his price locked for?

    1. The Wise Owl
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Until next GW

      1. rnrd
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        some people say locked for 7 days, some other say it is locked until the start of GW4

        which answer is the good one?

        1. Dr. Rog
          • 17 Years
          5 years, 1 day ago

          GW4

          1. Dr. Rog
            • 17 Years
            5 years, 1 day ago

            from fplstats

            Any new players added to the fantasy league will not immediately increase (or decrease) in price. A player must have been in the league for over eight days before transfers count towards the threshold value. This locking period can be extended to the start of a new Gameweek if the completion of the eight days period falls within an international break. To view the date and time at which they will be unlocked look in the "Unlocks" column. If the date and time is in the future then the players price is current locked.

              • 5 Years
              5 years, 1 day ago

              Saw the same text there, but where is "unlocks" column???

                • 17 Years
                5 years, 1 day ago

                click the + under their name

                  thanks for help found it now. 🙂

    MIND THE TRAP

  20. ☈☾
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Best mid/def under 6 who will rise in price twice?

    1. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      James

  21. El Presidente
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Already transferred out 3 times.... man

  22. JPSpurs
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Fernandes + Toney + Ings to
    Ronaldo + DCL + D Gray (-4)?

    Or keep Ings for another week?

    1. Invincibles
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      I would do that yes.

  23. jia you
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    This hurts, was hoping he'd be 13.0!
    Why, well I swapped out Torres for Raphina on my wildcard last week to leave 0.7 in the bank for Kane to CR7 just in case.

  24. Kodap
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    WC is active, how do people think this looks? Got 0.2m in the bank, still debating between Shaw & Rudiger, Ronaldo at 12.5 makes it easy to switch to Lukaku/Kane.

    Pickford
    Trent - Rudiger - Semedo
    Torres - Salah - Raph - Gray - Jota
    Ronaldo - Antonio

    Begovic - Ayling - Livaramento - Cucho

    1. KGFC
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      Looks solid

  25. Budgies
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    My team is set….

    Sanchez
    TAA, Regulion, Armartey
    Pogba, Jota, Torres, Benrahama
    Ronaldo, Lukaku, Antonio

    (Gunn, Gray, Livramento, James)

    Team value now £101.5m….£0.3m still in bank.

    1. Kun Tozser
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      No Kane?

      1. VAR United
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 day ago

        No gain

  26. pablo discobar
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    GK Sanchez/Foster
    DEF TAA, Shaw, Semedo, White, Livra
    MID Salah, Torres, Jota, Raphaina, Allan
    FWD DCL, Lukaku, Antonio.

    That's my WC for now.

    Jota could be Greenwood for 1 week.

    Toyed with Kane(cr7) in place of DCL but the midfield was disgusting.

  27. McSauce
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Bruno & DCL --> Jota & Ronaldo

  28. McSauce
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Is Bruno booted off penos now?

    1. Crouching Tiger
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 day ago

      No one knows. Bruno is the better taker though.

  29. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    WC draft. 0.0itb.

    Sanchez, Foster
    TAA, Ayling, Marcal/Coady, Livramento, Williams
    Salah, Torres, Traore, Smith-Rowe, 4.5 (probably Allan)
    Ronaldo, Lukaku, Antonio

  30. Zladan
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 day ago

    Mahrez Ings Shaw to Ronaldo Gray Marcal

    Sanchez
    TAA Marcal Livramento
    Salah Bruno Benrahma Gray
    Ronaldo Antonio Toney

    Foster Brownhill Tsimikas Amartey

    0.5m itb

    Will upgrade the defence next week as don’t feel the need to take a hit.

    Opted for Marcal and 0.5m itb as Shaw replacement.
