FPL Goalies’ Prices

Even though the start of the 2024/25 season is more than 2 months away, we are already seeing speculations about the prices of Fantasy Premier League players, with the EPL official website focusing on goalkeepers today.

Many FPL experts are sharing their thoughts on which netminders will see increases and decreases in price, with names such as Jordan Pickford and David Raya getting a lot of attention.

West Ham’s Alphonse Areola is tipped to see an increase in price, from £4.0m to £4.5m, while Manchester United’s Andre Onana might still be valued at around £5.0m, under top-tier keepers like Alisson or Ederson.

Kompany Goes to Bavaria

After a single season as a Premier League coach and not managing to stave off relegation at Burnley, Vincent Kompany has now been confirmed as the new Bayern Munich head coach.

It will be interesting to see how the Belgian adapts to the Bundesliga, where he will be the boss of former City teammate Leroy Sane, among other big names in the Bayern squad.
