Deadline Day Transfer News Live: Fantasy tips on Aubameyang, Mahrez, Giroud and more image

13:30 - Gerard Deulofeu Returns to the Premier League

The Spaniard has come back to England, this time with Watford.

Deulofeu has had a limited impact at Barcelona this season, hence the loan, but he did manage 5 goals in 11 matches in all competitions for the Spanish giants.

He joins a Watford team that have been stuttering of late but, with Richarlison on the other wing, this could turn out to be a fairly dangerous attack.

He comes into the Goal game at a reasonable £5.5m and, considering he'll likely face little opposition for a starting spot, could well be worth an own sooner rather than later.

 

 


13:22 - Emerson Palmieri Signed for Chelsea

Emerson’s move was completed late last night but it is worth discussing any Chelsea defender at this point.

He plays at left back and will likely just deputise for Marcos Alonso but, even if the latter was injured, Emerson’s Fantasy potential would be limited.

He only managed 7 clean sheets in 23 starts for Roma last season and has scored just 3 goals in his Serie A career.

While the signing was a good one, there's no need to rush him into your Goal team.

 

 


13:17 - Done Deals

While we wait on more high profile deals to be announced, let’s look at some recent Premier League transfers and discuss how it could impact your Fantasy team.

 

 


13:08 - Aubameyang Joins Arsenal!

The day started with Arsenal’s high profile signing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Borussia Dortmund!

He comes in for big money, so you assume he will get his minutes under Arsene Wenger – and should do plenty with them.

The Gabonese striker has scored 13 goals in 16 matches already this season, good for second in the Bundesliga behind only Robert Lewandowski.

His £8.5m price in the Goal game makes him the sixth most expensive forward but, considering his talent, he may still be a value.
