Fantasy Premier League is the official fantasy football platform ran by the league itself.
The season-long competition sees over 8,000,000 users from across the world compete to manage the highest scoring ‘fantasy’ team based on real life player performances.
Players from across the Premier League have been valued ahead of the new season. The cheapest players are priced at £4.0m and are those unlikely to pick up many if any points over the course of the season.
At the other end of the spectrum we have players such as Liverpool’s Mo Salah, who is the most expensive in the league at £13.0m.
But the game is won or lost in a user’s ability to pick out bargain players and predict who will score the most points in relation to their value.
While it is impossible to predict for sure, we have looked at the current prices of all Premier League players ahead of the 2022-23 season and picked out 17 players that stand out as potential bargain signings for Fantasy Premier League users.
5. Defender: Sven Botman - £4.5m
An unknown quantity in the Premier League but will form an important part of Newcastle’s defensive line which has improved considerably under Eddie Howe. Botman poses an aerial threat while also being able to distribute the ball from back to front. One to keep an eye on. | AFP via Getty Images
6. Defender: Ivan Perisic - £5.5m
An unknown quantity in the Premier League but for a player who reached double figures for Inter Milan last season, £5.5m could be a steal should he feature regularly for Spurs. An added bonus is he is listed as a defender so will gain more points for goals and assists. | Getty Images
7. Midfielder: Dejan Kulusevski - £8.0m
While £8.0m for a midfielder is slightly on the expensive side. The Spurs winger picked up 99 points last season despite only playing half of the campaign. Five goals and nine assists in 1,200 minutes of football is an impressive return. | Getty Images
8. Midfielder: Gabriel Martinelli - £6.0m
Enjoyed a solid second half to the season at Arsenal last time out, picking up 110 points with six goals and seven assists. With more game time anticipated ahead of the upcoming season, £6.0m could be a steal. | Getty Images
