Fantasy Premier League Price Changes: 11 Players See Value Shifts on January 17th

Today brought significant movement in the Fantasy Premier League transfer market, with 11 players experiencing price changes as managers continue to reshape their squads for the crucial mid-season period.

Price Rises ⬆️

Gabriel Leads Arsenal Defence Surge

Gabriel has risen to £6.8 million after his second price increase this gameweek, reflecting his exceptional form for Arsenal. The Brazilian centre-back has accumulated an impressive 117 points this season and boasts a substantial 33.7% ownership among FPL managers.

Gabriel's recent fixtures showcase his attacking threat, scoring 15 points against Aston Villa with a goal contribution, followed by 9 points at Bournemouth and 6 points in the goalless draw with Liverpool. His upcoming fixtures present mixed opportunities, with a home clash against Nottingham Forest before facing Manchester United away.

Saliba Continues Arsenal's Defensive Appeal

William Saliba has increased to £6.0 million, marking his first rise this gameweek. Despite lower ownership at 11.9%, the French defender has proven his worth with 111 points accumulated this season.

Saliba's recent performances include a modest 2 points against Aston Villa, just 1 point at Bournemouth, but a solid 7-point return in the clean sheet against Liverpool. His consistent minutes and Arsenal's improving defensive structure make him an attractive option at his current price point.

Kelleher Emerges as Budget Goalkeeper Option

Caoimhin Kelleher has risen to £4.6 million following impressive performances for Brentford. With 9.8% ownership, the Irish goalkeeper represents excellent value in the budget goalkeeper category.

Recent fixtures demonstrate his potential, earning 6 points against Spurs in a clean sheet, 2 points despite conceding twice to Everton, and an outstanding 13-point haul with a clean sheet against Sunderland. His upcoming fixture against Chelsea presents a challenging test.

Frimpong Attracts Liverpool Interest

Jeremie Frimpong has increased to £5.8 million in his first price rise this gameweek. The Liverpool defender carries 6.5% ownership and offers attacking potential from defence.

Frimpong's recent form shows consistency with 6 points against Leeds, 4 points despite limited minutes against Fulham, and another 6-point return in the clean sheet against Arsenal. His fixture list includes Burnley at home before facing Bournemouth away.

Price Falls ⬇️

Grealish Struggles Continue

Jack Grealish has dropped to £6.4 million following disappointing performances for Everton. Despite 9.4% ownership, the midfielder has managed only 49 points this season, well below expectations for his price bracket.

Recent fixtures highlight his struggles, with just 1 point from 18 minutes against Nottingham Forest, 10 points against Brentford providing false hope, before a -1 point return against Wolves. His upcoming fixture against Aston Villa offers potential for improvement.

O'Reilly Loses Manchester City Value

Matt O'Reilly has fallen to £5.2 million as his limited game time affects his FPL appeal. The Manchester City defender has 8.8% ownership but has accumulated only 33 points this season.

Recent performances show minimal returns with 1 point against Sunderland from 57 minutes, 2 points against Chelsea, and just 1 point from 17 minutes against Brighton. His reduced playing time makes him a risky investment despite City's defensive potential.

Low Ownership Movers

Budget Options See Movement

Among players with minimal ownership, James Garner (Everton) has risen to £5.2 million with 3.6% ownership, offering potential value in midfield.

Several low-ownership players experienced price drops: Rico Lewis (Manchester City) fell to £4.6 million with 1.3% ownership, Piero Hincapie (Arsenal) dropped to £5.2 million with 1.1% ownership, Nazir Abdullahi (Sunderland) decreased to £4.2 million with 0.4% ownership, and Jean-Ricner Bellegarde (Wolves) fell to £5.1 million with 0.0% ownership.

These movements in the budget category reflect managers' focus on premium assets and established performers as the season progresses.
