Club-by-club transfers: How is each side shaping up?

Arsenal

Key transfers out: Jorginho, Kieran Tierney, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Reiss Nelson, Oleksandr Zinchenko

Key transfers in: Kepa Arrizabalaga (GK), Martin Zubimendi (MID), Christian Norgaard (MID), Noni Madueke (MID), Cristhian Mosquera (DEF), Viktor Gyokeres (FOR), Eberechi Eze (MID), Piero Hincapie (DEF)

How will Gyokeres fare in the Premier League?

🎯Main new FPL options: Gyokeres, Zubimendi, Eze

Viktor Gyokeres scored 97 goals in 102 appearances for Portuguese side Sporting – and his early expected minutes for the Gunners were given a boost following the injury to Kai Havertz.

The Swede scored a penalty in Gameweek 2 but with Bukayo Saka off the pitch, it remains unclear who will take spot-kicks full-time.

Noni Madueke provides back-up for Saka on the right wing but is also an option on the left judging by what we’ve seen so far. He is not yet a secure starter to justify him as an FPL pick.

This could be further impacted by the signing of Eberechi Eze, who could play centrally or on the left. The former Crystal Palace playmaker scored eight goals and assisted eight last season but FPL managers will need to monitor if he can break into the starting 11.

Martin Zubimendi is a defensive midfielder who could be an option following FPL’s defensive contributions rules changes, with Christian Norgaard his likely deputy.

Elsewhere, the Gunners have added depth to their defence through back-up goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga, centre-back Cristhian Mosquera and Piero Hincapie. The latter could play as a centre-back or left-back.

Aston Villa

Key transfers out: Marcus Rashford (end of loan), Marco Asensio (end of loan), Axel Disasi (end of loan), Jacob Ramsey, Leon Bailey

Key transfers in: Marco Bizot (GK), Evan Guessand (MID), Victor Lindelof (DEF), Jadon Sancho (MID), Harvey Elliott (MID)

🎯Main new FPL options: Elliott

It was a largely quiet summer for Villa, with the potential departures of Ollie Watkins and Emiliano Martinez failing to happen.

Evan Guessand offers cover across the forward line. He scored 12 and assisted nine in Ligue 1 for Nice last season.

Villa moved for ex-Manchester United duo Victor Lindelof and Jadon Sancho, while Harvey Elliott joined from Liverpool.

Elliott lacked regular game time at Liverpool and will surely be hoping for a change at Villa Park. FPL managers are advised to keep an eye on his early minutes after the international break before committing.

Ollie Watkins stayed at Villa Park

Bournemouth

Key transfers out: Dean Huijsen, Milos Kerkez, Kepa Arrizabalaga, Mark Travers, Neto, Ilya Zabarnyi, Dango Ouattara, Luis Sinisterra, Philip Billing

Key transfers in: Adrien Truffert (DEF), Djordje Petrovic (GK), Eli Junior Kroupi (FOR), Bafode Diakite (DEF), Ben Doak (MID), Amine Adli (MID), Veljko Milosavljevic (DEF)

🎯Main new FPL options: Petrovic, Truffert, Diakite

The Cherries’ defence was raided, with Dean Huijsen leaving for Real Madrid, Milos Kerkez heading to Liverpool and Ilya Zabarnyi joining Paris Saint-Germain.

Left-back Kerkez has been replaced by Adrien Truffert. He managed seven goals and 18 assists in Ligue 1 for Lorient and is one to watch. He netted twice in one game in pre-season.

New number one Djordje Petrovic signed from Chelsea after a year on loan at Strasbourg – he had been considered by a number of clubs after a successful spell.

Centre-back Bafode Diakite, 24, signed for around £30m – the second biggest transfer fee in the club’s history. He scored four goals in 48 games for Lille last season and went straight into the starting lineup from Gameweek 1.

Marcos Senesi is the most appealing defender so far though, having earned defensive contributions in all three games up to the international break.

Eli Junior Kroupi scored 22 league goals in 30 matches for Ligue 2 Lorient last season and can play up front or on the left. The 19-year-old could emerge as a budget FPL option at £4.5m but how many minutes he’ll get is currently uncertain.

The same could be said for wingers Ben Doak, 19, and Amine Adli, 24, as well as 18-year-old defender Veljko Milosavljevic.

Brentford

Key transfers out: Mark Flekken, Christian Norgaard, Ben Mee, Bryan Mbeumo, Mads Roerslev, Yoane Wissa

Key transfers in: Michael Kayode (DEF), Caoimhin Kelleher (GK), Jordan Henderson (MID), Antoni Milambo (MID), Dango Ouattara (MID), Reiss Nelson (MID)

🎯Main new FPL options: Kelleher, Kayode, Ouattara

The futures of Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa dominated talk around Brentford’s summer transfer window, with Manchester United finally completing a deal for last season’s 20 goal midfielder.

Wissa was not involved in pre-season and Brentford’s early games before a deal with Newcastle was finally agreed.

The Bees lost manager Thomas Frank as well as number-one goalkeeper Mark Flekken and veteran midfielder Christian Norgaard. Liverpool’s back-up keeper Caoimhin Kelleher has taken Flekken’s place.

Right-back Michael Kayode impressed enough to earn a permanent transfer from Fiorentina meanwhile.

Dango Ouattara offers an option on the left or even up front, where he filled in for Evanilson at Bournemouth last season. He scored seven and assisted four and grabbed a debut goal for the Bees.

Reiss Nelson adds options to Keith Andrews’ attack. He is another player whose minutes are unclear for now though.

Michael Kayode’s stats

Brighton

Key transfers out: Joao Pedro, Valentin Barco, Simon Adingra, Evan Ferguson, Pervis Estupinan, Tariq Lamptey, Julio Enciso, Facundo Buonanotte, Igor Julio, Matt O’Riley

Key transfers in: Olivier Boscagli (DEF), Diego Coppola (DEF), Maxim De Cuyper (DEF), Charalampos Kostoulas (FOR), Kostas Tzimas (FOR), Tommy Watson (MID)

Are De Cuyper and Brighton’s new Greek wonderkids worthy picks?

🎯Main new FPL options: De Cuyper

The purchase of centre-backs Boscagli and Coppola led some Brighton fans to speculate that the Seagulls would switch to a back three system this season but it’s been a back four so far, with Lewis Dunk and Jan Paul van Hecke in central defence.

Maxim De Cuyper looks to be an attacking option at left-back.

The Belgian managed nine goals and 22 assists in 114 games for Club Brugge and since 2022 has one of the most goal involvements for a defender in the top 10 European leagues. He scored in the Seagulls’ final friendly.

De Cuyper has a good penalty taking record. It was Matt O’Riley who stepped up in Gameweek 1 but he has since left on loan.

With Pervis Estupinan leaving the club, we can be more certain of De Cuyper’s starts. Ferdi Kadioglu is a potential threat and played 21 minutes in Gameweek 1 after recovering from injury. He did not play at left-back though.

Young Greek duo Charalampos Kostoulas and Kostas Tzimas will be gradually introduced to the league. The latter scored twice in the second round of the Carabao Cup.

Burnley

Key transfers out: CJ Egan-Riley, James Trafford, Luca Koleosho,

Key transfers in: Zian Flemming (FOR), Kyle Walker (DEF), Axel Tuanzebe (DEF), Loum Tchaouna (MID), Max Weiss (GK), Jacob Bruun Larsen (MID), Bashir Humphreys (DEF), Marcus Edwards (MID), Quilindschy Hartman (DEF), Lesley Ugochukwu (MID), Martin Dubravka (GK), Armando Broja (FOR), Florentino Luis (MID)

🎯Main new FPL options: Dubravka, Hartman

Burnley set Championship records for their defence, conceding just 16 in 46 games en-route to promotion.

But their backline looks different, with first-choice centre-back CJ Egan-Riley and James Trafford leaving the club.

It’s only really budget bench spots that are set to be filled by the Clarets’ picks at this stage, with £4.0m goalkeeper Martin Dubravka their new number one.

Qulindschy Hartman could be more attacking than star centre-back Maxime Esteve but the latter could be preferred for defensive contributions given Burnley’s likely lack of goals.

Chelsea

Key transfers out: Kepa Arrizabalaga, Noni Madueke, Djordje Petrovic, Christopher Nkunku, Nicolas Jackson, Ben Chilwell

Key transfers in: Joao Pedro (FOR), Liam Delap (FOR), Jamie Gittens (MID), Estevao (MID), Jorrel Hato (DEF), Alejandro Garnacho (MID), Facundo Buonanotte (MID)

How nailed for starts are Pedro and Chelsea’s new signings?

🎯Main new FPL options: Pedro

Chelsea’s summer business raises question marks over who will regularly make their starting 11 – so treat their new signings with caution.

Joao Pedro has looked more secure for minutes than initially thought, helped by Nicolas Jackson leaving and Liam Delap’s hamstring injury.

Forward Marc Guiu was initially loaned to Sunderland, making him a potential option at £4.5m, but he has already been recalled.

Given his lack of starts for the Black Cats, his expected minutes actually look similar despite returning to the Blues.

Jamie Gittens and Alejandro Garnacho will compete on the left wing. Gittens scored 17 and assisted 14 in 107 games for Borussia Dortmund but it’s Garnacho who has the Premier League experience. The Argentine scored six and assisted four for Manchester United last season.

Jorrel Hato, 19, is primarily a left-back but he can also play centre-back. He amassed 111 appearances for Ajax, scoring four and assisting nine.

FPL interest in him will be limited, with Marc Cucurella expected to be first choice at left-back. A serious knee injury for Levi Colwill could create opportunities however.

Crystal Palace

Key transfers out: Joel Ward, Jeffrey Schlupp, Eberechi Eze, Odsonne Edouard

Key transfers in: Borna Sosa (DEF), Walter Benitez (GK), Yeremy Pino (MID), Jaydee Canvot (DEF), Christantus Uche (FOR)

🎯Main new FPL options: Pino

The loss of Eberechi Eze was the key headline out of Selhurst Park, with the midfielder leaving for Arsenal having come close to joining Spurs.

Marc Guehi looked set to join Liverpool on deadline day but Palace pulled the plug at the last minute amid concerns they had no adequate replacement for the centre-back.

Croatian left-back Borna Sosa looks to be back-up to Tyrick Mitchell for now.

Yeremy Pino, Jaydee Canvot and Christantus Uche were late signings.

Pino scored 22 and assisted 23 in 170 games for Villarreal and is one to watch at £6.0m.

Uche signed for Getafe in 2024, scoring four and assisting seven in 38 games. While he can play on the left, he is likely to cover for Jean-Philippe Mateta.

Everton

Key transfers out: Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Abdoulaye Doucoure, Jack Harrison, Jesper Lindstrom, Dominic Calvert-Lewin

Key transfers in: Carlos Alcaraz (MID), Thierno Barry (FOR), Mark Travers (GK), Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall (MID), Adam Aznou (DEF), Jack Grealish (MID), Tyler Dibling (MID), Merlin Rohl (MID)

🎯Main new FPL options: Dewsbury-Hall, Grealish, Barry

With Dominic Calvert-Lewin leaving Everton, the Toffees bought an exciting prospect in Thierno Barry to compete with Beto up front.

The 22-year-old Frenchman scored 11 in 35 La Liga appearances for Villarreal last season, 25 of which were starts. He also contributed four assists.

As a young player coming into the league, it could take Barry a while to adjust – but at £6.0m, he could be factor as a budget forward at some point this season. He started one of the first three league fixtures.

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall will be seeking to revive his career after an unsuccessful spell at Chelsea.

The £5.0m FPL midfielder was a key man for former club Leicester, scoring 12 and assisting 14 for the Foxes in their promotion year. He went straight into the starting lineup in the Toffees’ final friendly and in Gameweek 1.

Jack Grealish potentially complicates the picture when working out who will start in Everton’s attack. Dwight McNeil could become a squad player, with Iliman Ndiaye and Dewsbury-Hall expected to be key players alongside the Manchester City loanee.

And Tyler Dibling offers further attacking depth having impressed in his debut Premier League season for Southampton in 2024/25.

Fulham

Key transfers out: Carlos Vinicius, Willian, Samuel Chukwueze, Kevin

Key transfers in: Benjamin Lecomte (GK)

🎯Main new FPL options: None

It’s was a quiet summer for Fulham, with little business completed.

Kevin is a 22-year-old winger from Shakhtar Donetsk who joined for a club record £34.6m. He scored 17 goals in 57 matches in all competitions for the Ukrainian team.

Samuel Chukwueze is primarily a right-winger who scored eight and assisted six in 70 games for AC Milan. He recorded 37 goals and 29 assists in 207 matches at Villarreal before that

Rodrigo Muniz was apparently a target for Leeds but the striker stayed at Craven Cottage. Kenny Tete signed a new deal after looking set for Everton.

Kenny Tete’s stats

Leeds

Key transfers out: Junior Firpo, Largie Ramazani, Patrick Bamford,

Key transfers in: Lukas Nmecha (FOR), Sebastiaan Bornauw (DEF), Jaka Bijol (DEF), Gabriel Gudmundsson (DEF), Sean Longstaff (MID), Anton Stach (MID), Lucas Perri (GK), Dominic Calvert-Lewin (FOR), Noah Okafor (FOR), James Justin (DEF)

🎯Main new FPL options: Gudmundsson, Stach, Perri

Leeds looked to bolster their defence in the early stages of the transfer window, adding centre-backs Sebastiaan Bornauw and Jaka Bijol from Wolfsburg and Udinese. Both will add physicality to the backline at 6ft 3ins.

Gabriel Gudmundsson replaces Junior Firpo at left-back – he recorded four goals and three assists in 137 games for Lille. James Justin provides competition.

Lukas Nmecha is a forward from Wolfsburg. The 26-year-old scored 19 times in 85 appearances for the German club. He can play up front or on the wing and came off the bench to score a penalty in Gameweek 1.

Further options up top arrived in the form of Dominic Calvert-Lewin, whose fitness has impacted his progress in recent seasons.

And the latest newcomer is Noah Okafor from AC Milan, who can play up front or on either side of the striker. He has a career record of 63 goals and 37 assists in 278 games across multiple clubs.

It will take a while to work out who the favoured starters will be in the attacking positions, making it hard to recommend any at this stage.

Anton Stach and Sean Longstaff are central midfielders, offering experience and – in Stach’s case – further physicality. The German defensive midfielder is 6ft 4ins but has some attacking threat, with 26 career goals in 273 games. He grabbed an assist and defensive contributions in Gameweek 1.

In signing Lucas Perri meanwhile, Leeds have their new number one – ending hopes Karl Darlow would be a £4.0m starting goalkeeper.

Liverpool

Key transfers out: Trent Alexander-Arnold, Jarell Quansah, Caoimhin Kelleher, Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez, Harvey Elliott, Konstantinos Tsimikas

Key transfers in: Georgi Mamardashvili (GK), Jeremie Frimpong (DEF), Florian Wirtz (MID), Milos Kerkez (DEF), Hugo Ekitike (FOR), Geovanni Leoni (DEF), Alexander Isak (FOR)

🎯Main new FPL options: Frimpong, Wirtz, Kerkez, Ekitike, Isak

The Reds have a strong argument for doing the best business of the window, having twice spent more than £100m on a single player.

Alexander Isak was one of them, joining on deadline day after a summer of speculation. His signing muddies the waters somewhat, with Hugo Ekitike having started well up front.

Ekitike could play off the left over Cody Gakpo but Isak may not make his first start for a little while, having missed pre-season and the first three gameweeks.

Florian Wirtz has had a quiet start to life in the Premier League but the Reds expect big things, having paid £116m for the Bayer Leverkusen midfielder. He managed 57 goals and 65 assists in 197 games for the German club.

Jeremie Frimpong was competing with Conor Bradley before getting injured. The attacking full-back could cover for Mohamed Salah during the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) later in the season.

Milos Kerkez has slotted in at left-back ahead of Andrew Robertson.

Liverpool hoped to complete a deal for Marc Guehi on deadline day but the move did not materialise. They could be a little short at the back, despite Geovanni Leoni joining.

Manchester City

Key transfers out: Kevin De Bruyne, Kyle Walker, James McAtee, Jack Grealish, Ederson, Ilkay Gundogan, Manuel Akanji

Key transfers in: Rayan Ait-Nouri (DEF), Rayan Cherki (MID), Tijjani Reijnders (MID), Sverre Nypan (MID), James Trafford (GK), Gianluigi Donnarumma (GK)

🎯Main new FPL options: Ait-Nouri, Reijnders

City were busy in the transfer market initially, adding left-back Rayan Ait-Nouri from Wolves and enhancing their midfield options amid the departure of Kevin De Bruyne.

As ever with City, the doubts are not of the quality of their options but whether they will play.

Ait-Nouri could be an excellent option in defence – and could have the knock-on effect of pushing Josko Gvardiol to centre-back and limiting the Croatian’s attacking potential once he returns from injury.

Rayan Cherki, 21, offers potential but has picked up an injury. He scored 29 and assisted 45 in 185 games for Lyon – and came off the bench to score in Gameweek 1.

Tijjani Reijnders started all three of City’s league matches before the international break and offers value at £5.6m.

James Trafford started in Gameweek 1, with Ederson linked with a move elsewhere.

The ex-Burnley goalkeeper would have been appealing at £5.0m if not for the deadline day signing of Gianluigi Donnarumma, who is expected to take over as number one.

Manchester United

Key transfers out: Christian Eriksen, Jonny Evans, Victor Lindelof, Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, Rasmus Hojlund, Antony

Key transfers in: Matheus Cunha (MID), Diego Leon (DEF), Bryan Mbeumo (MID), Benjamin Sesko (FOR), Senne Lammens (GK)

Are Cunha and Mbeumo still good picks at Manchester United?

🎯Main new FPL options: Cunha, Mbeumo

After a rapid start from United, who signed Matheus Cunha from Wolves early on, it went very quiet at Old Trafford for a while.

Bryan Mbuemo then joined the Red Devils after extensive negotiations. The former Brentford player scored 20 goals last season.

A striker was next on the list, with Benjamin Sesko signed from RB Leipzig.

Sesko is yet to cement his place in the starting 11, so is one to watch for now. Supposedly coveted by Arsenal and Newcastle among others in recent seasons, he scored 39 in 87 appearances for Leipzig. The 6ft 5ins 22-year-old has world-class potential according to many experts but will take time to adapt.

Goalkeeper Senne Lammens, 23, was United’s deadline day move. Altay Bayindir and Andre Onana have failed to impress during Ruben Amorim’s tenure.

Bayindir has started the season as number one and could compete with Lammens for the role going forward.

The 6ft 4ins Lammens made the most saves of any keeper in Europe’s top 10 leagues last season (173) at an 80% save percentage but lacks experience, so is not nailed to start.

Newcastle

Key transfers out: Callum Wilson, Sean Longstaff, Alexander Isak

Key transfers in: Anthony Elanga (MID), Aaron Ramsdale (GK), Jacob Ramsey (MID), Malick Thiaw (DEF), Nick Woltemade (FOR), Yoane Wissa (FOR)

NEW: Alexander Isak transfer – FPL impact on Liverpool and Newcastle assets

🎯Main new FPL options: Elanga

Alexander Isak left the club on deadline day, marking the end of a summer-long saga.

Nick Woltemade and Yoane Wissa have been signed to replace him but how the Magpies will line up after the international break remains to be seen.

Wissa scored 18 goals for Brentford last season and has plenty of Premier League experience, which could give him the initial edge over Woltemade.

The German has operated both up front and as a support striker, so is not an out-and-out centre-forward. He had a breakout season in the Bundesliga in 2o24/25, scoring 12 and assisting two.

Anthony Elanga joined the Magpies in a big-money deal from Nottingham Forest. He scored six and assisted 11 in the league last season.

The Swede will generally compete with Jacob Murphy on the right, who had a superb season of his own, but looked to have the upper hand ahead of the break.

Jacob Ramsey has strengthened them down the left too, having joined from Aston Villa. He scored one and assisted four in 29 Premier League games last season.

Anthony Elanga’s stats

Nottingham Forest

Key transfers out: Anthony Elanga

Key transfers in: Igor Jesus (FOR), Jair Cunha (DEF), Dan Ndoye (MID), Angus Gunn (GK), James McAtee (MID), Arnaud Kalimuendo (FOR), Omari Hutchinson (MID), Douglas Luiz (MID), John Victor (GK), Oleksandr Zinchenko (DEF), Dilane Bakwa (MID)

🎯Main new FPL options: Ndoye

Forest added a number of players to their squad, which was in need of depth given their involvement in Europe this season.

But it can take a while for Nuno Espirito Santo to integrate new arrivals into his starting 11, so the new FPL options are limited for now.

Dan Ndoye has taken over from Anthony Elana on the right, scoring one and assisting one in his first three games.

Forest’s new forward Igor Jesus will battle to take minutes off Chris Wood, who scored 20 league goals in 2024/25. The pair could however be played together at times, as they were in Forest’s final two friendlies.

Jesus scored 53 and assisted 24 in 127 games for Shabab Al-Ahli in the UAE Pro League before joining Botafogo and has four caps for Brazil, scoring one goal on the international stage. He netted 17 in 59 for Botafogo.

Wood was taken off before the 80 minute mark twice in the first three games.

Arnaud Kalimuendo added another forward option after joining post-Gameweek 1. Also linked with Brentford, he scored 18 league goals in 34 games for Stade Rennais in 2024/25. He can play up front or out wide.

James McAtee comes highly rated from Manchester City. The attacking midfielder was largely limited to time off the bench last season but found the net three times.

Omari Hutchinson scored three and assisted three for relegated Ipswich, offering further midfield depth for the Tricky Trees.

Former Aston Villa midfielder Douglas Luiz will compete for gametime in central midfield but may not have the same set-piece and penalty threat he carried at Villa Park.

Sunderland

Key transfers out: Tommy Watson, Jobe Bellingham, Patrick Roberts

Key transfers in: Enzo Le Fee (MID), Habib Diarra (MID), Reinildo (DEF), Chemsdine Talbi (MID), Simon Adingra (MID), Noah Sadiki (MID), Granit Xhaka (MID), Arthur Masuaku (DEF), Omar Alderete (DEF), Nordi Mukiele (DEF), Lutsharel Geertruida (DEF), Brian Brobbey (FOR), Bertrand Traore (MID)

🎯Main new FPL options: Reinildo, Adingra, Xhaka

The Black Cats were extremely busy this summer, with their new-look squad almost unrecognisable from the one which gained promotion.

Marc Guiu was the headline signing, priced up as a £4.5m forward. He has since been recalled by Chelsea however.

Regis Le Bris’s team reacted by moving for Ajax’s Brian Brobbey, who scored 56 goals and assisted 24 in 163 appearances for the Dutch outfit. But has Guiu found, there is competition from Eliezer Mayenda and Wilson Isidor.

Simon Adingra is the pick of the attacking signings, grabbing an assist in Gameweek 1. He was benched in Gameweek 3 though.

Habib Diarra is the replacement for star central midfielder Jobe Bellingham. The Senegalese box-to-box midfielder scored 11 and assisted 10 in 102 appearances for Strasbourg and has a Premier League assist under his belt already.

Reinildo and midfielder Granit Xhaka offer experience in defence and midfield respectively.

Omar Alderete was a substitute in Gameweek 1 but may soon be a starter. The central defender was described by Getafe’s president as ‘one of the best centre-backs in La Liga’, bemoaning pressures to sell.

And the Sunderland defence has received a further makeover, with right-back Nordi Mukiele and Lutsharel Geertruida joining late.

Mukiele spent a year on loan at Bayer Leverkusen, where he scored one in 15. But the 27-year-old has extensive experience at clubs including RB Leipzig, with a career record of 14 goals and 19 assists in 313 matches. He started in Gameweek 1.

Geertruida can play either as a right-back or centre-back. The new options make it a case of monitoring them until the regular starters emerge.

Spurs

Key transfers out: Fraser Forster, Timo Werner, Sergio Reguilon, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Son Heung-min

Key transfers in: Mohammed Kudus (MID), Mathys Tel (FOR), Kota Takai (DEF), Luka Vuskovic (DEF), Kevin Danso (DEF), Joao Palhinha (MID), Xavi Simons (MID), Randal Kolo Muani (FOR)

🎯Main new FPL options: Kudus, Simons

New Spurs manager Thomas Frank will take charge of the Lilywhites this season and has some new names to join him.

Among the main fantasy interests is Mohammed Kudus, who recorded 13 goals and 13 assists in two seasons for West Ham.

Joao Palhinha could appeal as a result of the new FPL defensive contributions scoring. It would have significantly lifted his points total when he was in the Premier League – from 91 to 135 in 2023/24 and 83 to 131 in 2022/23.

Xavi Simons and Randal Kolo Muani completed Spurs’ summer business.

Simons is an exciting attacking midfielder who scored 10 and assisted seven in the Bundesliga for RB Leipzig last season. He has a career record of 65 goals and 53 assists in 178 club matches for Leipzig, Paris Saint-Germain and PSV Eindhoven.

Muani will vye for minutes against Dominic Solanke and Richarlison, who has had the upper hand before Muani joined. The Paris Saint-Germain forward scored eight in 16 league games on loan at Juventus in 2024/25.

He could emerge as an option in FPL but this relies on him becoming first choice.

Mohammed Kudus’s stats

West Ham

Key transfers out: Mohammed Kudus, Aaron Cresswell, Lukasz Fabianski, Vladimir Coufal, Danny Ings, Edson Alvarez, Nayef Aguerd

Key transfers in: Jean-Clair Todibo (DEF), El Hadji Malick Diouf (DEF), Kyle Walker-Peters (DEF), Callum Wilson (FOR), Mads Hermansen (GK), Mateus Fernandes (MID), Igor Julio (DEF)

🎯Main new FPL options: Diouf, Hermansen

El Hadji Malick Diouf is an attacking wing-back from Slavia Prague who has already shown his potential with two assists in three Premier League games.

Mads Hermansen looks to have taken over as number one ahead of Alphonse Areola, starting the first three league matches of the season.

Brighton loanee Igor Julio may replace Nayef Aguerd in the starting 11, with the Moroccan heading to Marseille.

Callum Wilson will provide much-needed cover up front but his minutes were limited to just 357 last season.

Wolves

Key transfers out: Rayan Ait-Nouri, Matheus Cunha, Pablo Sarabia,

Key transfers in: Jorgen Strand Larsen (FOR), Fer Lopez (MID), Jhon Arias (MID), David Moller Wolfe (DEF), Jackson Tchatchoua (DEF)

🎯Main new FPL options: Arias

Jorgen Strand Larsen sealed a permanent deal after last season’s loan spell, when he scored 14 league goals. He was heavily linked with a move to Newcastle but remains at the club.

The losses of Matheus Cunha and Rayan Ait-Nouri left major holes to fill in the squad.

The signing of winger Jhon Arias could go some way to plugging the gap left by Cunha in attack. The Colombian, 27, scored 47 and assisted 55 in 230 games for Brazilian club Fluminense.

Arias featured at the Club World Cup this summer, where he scored and assisted one in the group stage.

In defence, David Moller Wolfe offers an option at left wing-back in the absence of Ait-Nouri. Arriving from AZ Alkmaar, he scored four and assisted 10 in 92 appearances.

And on the other side, Jackson Tchatchoua is set to put an end to Ki-Jana Hoever’s time as a £4.0m FPL option. He scored two and assisted five in 64 games for Hellas Verona – an identical record in all three categories as he managed at Royal Charleroi.

Wolves said he was the ‘fastest player in Serie A last season’, producing a top speed of 36.3km/h, and bagged an assist before the international break.
