Fantasy Premier League (FPL) looks set to launch for 2024/25 this afternoon (UK time).
We’re getting some more player prices revealed before then, too.
While we were half-expecting Wednesday to be launch day anyway, Crystal Palace gave the game away this morning.
The Eagles, when revealing the prices of the rest of their squad, initially printed the following:
“Imminently this afternoon” was quickly deleted and replaced with “very soon”, suggesting Palace may have jumped the gun.
1.15pm – MANCHESTER CITY
The reigning champions are the latest team to have released all of the prices of their senior squad.
We knew several of these already, including Phil Foden (£9.5m), Kevin De Bruyne (£9.5m), Erling Haaland (£15.0m) and Josko Gvardiol (£6.0m).
Of the rest, Stefan Ortega coming in at £5.5m looks surprising at first glance. Should Ederson leave City as rumoured, however, FPL wouldn’t want City’s potential new number one to be a £4.0m no-brainer pick.
Other than Gvardiol, the regulars in defence all cost £5.5m.
There’s a big drop-off from Foden and De Bruyne to the rest of the Citizens’ midfielders. None of them will cost you more than £6.5m.
11am – GAME UPDATING
No more prices but the surest sign yet that FPL is about to relaunch for the new season…
10am – CRYSTAL PALACE
We’d already had the prices revealed of seven Palace players, including Jean-Philippe Mateta (£7.5m), Daniel Munoz (£5.0m) and Eberechi Eze (£7.0m), but now the full senior squad has been priced up, too.
Tyrick Mitchell coming in at £5.0m is perhaps the most noteworthy from the latest bunch of reveals.
He and Munoz were given more attacking license as wing-backs following Oliver Glasner’s arrival.
From Glasner’s first match in Gameweek 26 onwards, Mitchell ranked joint-fifth among defenders for penalty box touches.
He was also joint-11th and joint-ninth for shots in the box and chances created.
The Eagles’ two main goalkeepers and centre-halves are all available at £4.5m, for cheaper routes into Palace’s backline.
