As Fantasy Premier League managers look ahead to Gameweek 20, transfer activity is heating up. Strong recent performances, favorable fixtures, and returning players from injury are all influencing decisions ahead of the next deadline.
Below are the most transferred-in players as preparations for GW20 gather pace.
Gabriel (Arsenal – £6.4m)
Gabriel Magalhães, fondly referred to as “Big Gaby” by Mikel Arteta, has quickly become the most transferred-in player ahead of GW20.
Recently returning from injury, the Arsenal center-back made an immediate impact with a commanding performance against Aston Villa.
Gabriel scored a goal and was taken off before Aston Villa pulled one back, leaving the centre-back with a whopping 15 FPL points in GW19.
Arsenal have one of the strongest defenses in the league, and Gabriel’s attacking threat from set pieces only adds to his appeal.
At the time of this report, approximately 426,541 managers have added him to their squads, making him the standout transfer target this week.
Morgan Rogers (Aston Villa – £7.5m)
The second most transferred-in player is Aston Villa’s in-form attacking midfielder, Morgan Rogers.
Despite Villa’s defeat to league leaders Arsenal in GW19, their overall form has been exceptional, with 11 consecutive wins before that result.
Rogers has been at the heart of Villa’s attacking success, consistently delivering goals and assists.
His influence in the final third and strong underlying numbers have convinced nearly 250,000 managers to bring him in ahead of GW20.
Bruno Guimarães (Newcastle United – £7.0m)
Newcastle midfielder Bruno Guimarães is the third most transferred-in asset, with around 130,000 managers backing him not only for GW20 but potentially through to GW22.
Newcastle’s upcoming fixtures appear favorable, and Bruno has been in excellent form, offering both attacking returns and bonus point potential.
His consistency, leadership, and involvement in key moments make him an attractive midfield option for managers seeking reliability during this busy period.
Rayan Cherki (Lyon – £6.7m)
Although Cherki underperformed in GW19, his recent run of impressive goals and assists has kept him firmly on managers’ radars.
His creativity and attacking upside have earned him a place in the squads of over 110,914 managers as focus shifts to GW20.
Many FPL managers are willing to overlook one quieter gameweek, trusting in Cherki’s ability to deliver points against upcoming opposition.
James Tarkowski (Everton – £5.6m)
Everton defender James Tarkowski rounds out the list, with more than 110,000 managers bringing him in ahead of GW20.
Tarkowski has returned an impressive 20 points over his last three matches, largely thanks to Everton’s improved defensive performances.
However, his upcoming fixture against Brentford raises some concerns, as the Bees have looked solid over the last three gameweeks.
While Tarkowski offers value and goal threat from set pieces, managers may want to temper expectations for this particular matchup.
