FPL Price Changes: Nine Players See Value Shifts as January Transfer Window Opens

Nine Fantasy Premier League players experienced price changes today, with two rising and seven falling as managers continue to reshape their squads during the busy winter period.

Price Rises ⬆️

Gabriel (Arsenal) - Now £6.7m

The Arsenal defender has risen by £0.1m and remains a popular choice with 29.1% ownership. Gabriel's recent form has been mixed, with a standout 15-point haul against Aston Villa sandwiched between limited appearances. He managed just 19 minutes against Brighton but bounced back with a full 77 minutes and impressive returns against Villa, before scoring 9 points in the 3-2 victory over Bournemouth.

Arsenal's upcoming fixtures present a mixed bag, starting with Nottingham Forest at home before a challenging trip to Manchester United. The Gunners then face Leeds at home, followed by matches against Sunderland and Brentford, offering decent defensive prospects for the Brazilian centre-back.

Anthony Gordon (Newcastle) - Now £7.5m

The Newcastle midfielder has also increased by £0.1m despite relatively low ownership at just 6.3%. Gordon's recent performances have been steady rather than spectacular, managing 2 points against Manchester United, 5 points against Burnley, and another 2-point return against Crystal Palace in Newcastle's 2-0 victory.

Newcastle face Wolves away next, followed by Aston Villa at home and a tough trip to Liverpool. The Magpies then host Brentford before travelling to Tottenham, presenting a challenging run of fixtures that could impact Gordon's appeal.

Price Falls ⬇️

David Raya (Arsenal) - Now £5.9m

Arsenal's goalkeeper has dropped £0.1m despite being the most owned player among today's fallers at 33.7%. Raya's recent returns have been modest, collecting just 2 points against both Brighton and Aston Villa before managing only 1 point in the defeat to Bournemouth. The Spanish keeper has struggled for clean sheets recently despite Arsenal's generally solid defensive record.

With the same fixture list as Gabriel, Raya faces Nottingham Forest, Manchester United, Leeds, Sunderland, and Brentford in the coming gameweeks.

Eberechi Eze (Crystal Palace) - Now £7.3m

The Crystal Palace midfielder has fallen £0.1m and currently sits at 9.6% ownership. Concerningly for his backers, Eze hasn't featured in any of Palace's last three matches, failing to register any minutes against Brighton, Aston Villa, or Bournemouth. This lack of game time explains his price drop as managers look elsewhere for midfield options.

Palace's upcoming fixtures mirror Arsenal's schedule, though Eze's current absence from the starting XI makes him a risky proposition regardless of fixture difficulty.

Josko Gvardiol (Manchester City) - Now £6.0m

The Manchester City defender has dropped £0.1m and is currently dealing with a leg injury with an unknown return date. Before his injury concerns, Gvardiol showed promise with 8 points against Nottingham Forest, though he managed just 33 minutes against Sunderland and 51 minutes against Chelsea before his fitness issues emerged.

City face Manchester United away next, followed by Wolves at home, Tottenham away, Liverpool at home, and Fulham away. The Croatian's injury status makes him a significant doubt for these fixtures.

Low Ownership Price Falls

Several players with minimal ownership have also seen their values decrease:

  • Dewsbury-Hall (Everton) - Now £4.9m (2.8% ownership)
  • Tavernier (Bournemouth) - Now £5.5m (2.4% ownership)
  • Trossard (Arsenal) - Now £6.9m (1.8% ownership)
  • Jair Cunha (Nottingham Forest) - Now £4.2m (0.1% ownership)

These players represent potential budget options for managers looking to free up funds elsewhere, though their low ownership suggests limited appeal in the current market.
