FPL Price Changes: Key Insights for the Upcoming Gameweek
As we approach the next gameweek, several FPL price changes are set to take effect tonight. Keeping an eye on these changes can be crucial for Fantasy Premier League managers looking to maximise their team value and make strategic transfers. Here's a detailed look at some of the players experiencing price fluctuations:
Milos Kerkez (Bournemouth)
Price Change: Set to rise from £4.9m
Transfer Activity: 6,329 purchases this gameweek
Form: 3.8
Ownership: 11.8%
Milos Kerkez's impending price rise comes as no surprise given his solid performances and Bournemouth's defensive improvements. With a form rating of 3.8, he has become a popular choice among FPL managers, evident from the 6,329 transfers in this week. Kerkez's rising ownership reflects confidence in his ability to deliver consistent returns, especially with favourable fixtures on the horizon for Bournemouth.
For managers, investing in Kerkez could be a strategic move, particularly if Bournemouth continue their strong defensive displays. However, keeping an eye on fixture difficulty and potential rotation due to fixture congestion will be key.
Antoine Semenyo (Bournemouth)
Price Change: Set to rise from £5.6m
Transfer Activity: 3,043 purchases this gameweek
Form: 7.0
Ownership: 7.4%
Antoine Semenyo has caught the eye with his impressive form of 7.0, leading to a price increase. His attacking prowess has added a new dimension to Bournemouth's forward line, garnering 3,043 new owners this week. With his ownership at 7.4%, Semenyo is becoming a valuable asset for those looking to capitalise on Bournemouth's attacking fixtures.
FPL managers considering Semenyo should be mindful of Bournemouth's upcoming matches. If he maintains his form, he could be a differential pick that offers both goals and assists.
Dejan Kulusevski (Spurs)
Price Change: Set to fall from £6.4m
Transfer Activity: 1,886 sales this gameweek
Form: 4.0
Ownership: 5.2%
Dejan Kulusevski's price is set to drop as his form has dipped, leading to 1,886 managers opting to sell him this gameweek. With a form of 4.0 and ownership at 5.2%, many are questioning his value in the Spurs lineup, especially with the team's mixed results.
Spurs' upcoming fixtures and Kulusevski's role in the squad will heavily influence his FPL viability. Managers should evaluate whether his potential to return to form justifies holding onto him or if reallocating funds elsewhere would be more beneficial.
Ismaïla Sarr (Crystal Palace)
Price Change: Set to fall from £5.7m
Transfer Activity: 1,732 sales this gameweek
Form: 3.5
Ownership: 2.5%
Ismaïla Sarr is experiencing a price drop due to a decline in form, marked at 3.5. With 1,732 sales, his ownership is dwindling, now at 2.5%. Crystal Palace's recent performances have not been convincing, prompting managers to look elsewhere for midfield options.
For those holding Sarr, it might be wise to consider alternatives, especially if Palace's attacking form does not improve. Monitoring his position and role in upcoming matches will be crucial for making an informed decision.
Morgan Gibbs-White (Nott'm Forest)
Price Change: Set to rise from £6.4m
Transfer Activity: 740 purchases this gameweek
Form: 6.0
Ownership: 4.8%
Morgan Gibbs-White is on the rise, with a solid form of 6.0 and 740 new additions to FPL squads. His role in Nottingham Forest's midfield has made him a tempting prospect for managers looking for a creative and dynamic midfielder.
Given Forest's upcoming fixtures, Gibbs-White could continue to increase in value if he maintains his current form. Managers considering him should assess Forest's attacking strategies and Gibbs-White's involvement in key plays.
Conclusion
As FPL managers prepare for the upcoming gameweek, these price changes offer a glimpse into players' current form and potential value. Strategic transfers can enhance your squad's performance and overall team value. Whether you're looking to invest in rising stars or cut losses on falling assets, staying informed about price trends and player performances will be key to making the most of your FPL experience.
