Erling Haaland has set a new record as the most expensive player in Fantasy Premier League history, with a price tag of £15.0M for the upcoming 2024/25 season. Despite his high valuation, Haaland was still the most popular player in Fantasy Premier League last season due to his potential for big point totals. Manchester City’s plans to strengthen their squad could further boost Haaland’s appeal to fantasy players.
Haaland’s impressive statistics from the previous season, including 121 shots, 114 shots in the box, 55 big chances, and 57 shots on target, make him an attractive option for fantasy teams. Despite scoring fewer points in the 2023/24 season compared to his debut campaign with Manchester City, Haaland’s goal-scoring abilities cannot be overlooked. Additionally, with no international commitments this summer, Haaland’s pre-season preparations are expected to be maximized.
Fantasy Premier League has confirmed Haaland’s historical position as the most expensive player, surpassing the likes of Thierry Henry, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Robin Van Persie. With a high ownership percentage last season and the potential for even better performances with Manchester City, Haaland remains a top choice for fantasy players ahead of the new season.
