Fantasy Premier League managers prepare for the 2026/27 season

Summary

As the 2026/27 Premier League season approaches, Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers are strategizing for their squads. Key players include Erling Braut Haaland priced at £15.5m and Bruno Fernandes at £12m, who have favorable early fixtures. Managers must be cautious of players returning from the World Cup, such as Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice, who may have limited availability and fitness. Additionally, several newly-promoted teams present affordable options, particularly in defense. This evolving complicates early selections as the season begins.
