Fantasy Premier League 2018-19 Tips : 10 New Players To Sign

10. Ricardo (Leicester)

Ricardo Pereira, commonly just referred to as 'Ricardo', joined Leicester in a £22m deal from Porto. The right back is priced at only £5m in Fantasy Premier League and could provide some major value. Last season, the Portugal international scored twice and created five more goals at Porto.

Delving deeper into his statistics, we can also see that Pereira created around 35 chances for teammates over the course of the season, marking him out as one of the most creative full-backs in Europe, and he's shown consistency too. In the season before last, while playing on loan at Nice, he supplied another two goals and four more assists in just 24 league appearances.

The Portuguese adapted to the French league very quickly and could do the same again in England. Leicester forked out a lot of cash for him so clearly have high hopes for Ricardo and he should be starting games often. Defensively speaking, the 24-year-old is solid and a strong tackler, and he could aid Leicester in securing a few clean sheets too.
