Bruno Fernandes Fantasy Premier League: Price of player in FPL and his scope of fetching points

Bruno Fernandes Fantasy Premier League: Price of the player in FPL as Manchester United confirms Portuguese player’s arrival at the Old Trafford.

Bruno Fernandes has reportedly completed his move to Manchester United in this transfer window, as the club announces his arrival after the player completes his medical with the club.

According to the several reports, Manchester United will be paying €55 million to Sporting + €10 million ‘easy’ add ons + €15M ‘complicated’ add ons. The agreement has been reached with Fernandes agreeing on personal terms too.

This surely eases Ole Solskjaer’s problems to some extent, as the depleted squad due to injuries has limited his options for the upcoming matches and Fernandes will certainly bolster up the lineup.

The Portuguese International has amassed 15 goals and 14 assists in the 25 games he has played in this season across all competitions. With his inclusion in the Premier League, his stats do show him as a good candidate for the Fantasy Premier League game.

With Manchester United signing him, his price in the fantasy game is 8 million. Meanwhile, he can be a great option for the fantasy teams, as he will be deputed at an offensive role, preferably behind Anthony Martial, giving him ample chances to create and score goals.

Moreover, with Mane injured, he can surely be a cheaper buy considering the Senegalese might miss 2-3 matches ahead. Although, there is no guarantee that Fernandes will appear this week.

On the other hand, there is no guarantee that he will start performing at his current level in the Premier League, as usually, players take time to settle in the Premier League.

But there is no denial in the fact that Fernandes is going to be a regular starter at Manchester United from February. Whilst considering all aspects, it would be safe to pick Fernandes in March, as from their Manchester United have a long list of easy fixtures.

Thus, Fernandes seems to be an interesting prospect for the FPL, but his inclusion in the league will only tell his worth, so it is surely a worth to take a shot at him.
