Fantasy Premier League Tips: 11 Cheap Players For 2019/20

4. Ayoze Perez (Leicester) - £6.5 Million

It caught many football fans a little off-guard to see Ayoze Perez make the jump from Newcastle to Leicester this summer.

Not so much Perez departing St. James’ Park, but more the fact that his destination was Leicester City. After all, the talented forward had been regularly linked with a move to Barcelona for the past several seasons.

Regardless, Perez now finds himself a Foxes player under the management of Brendan Rodgers.

At £6.5 million, the Spaniard is a great option to have in your Fantasy Football midfield. Given how Rodgers loves to have a fluidity and sense of rotation amongst his attacking players, Perez is going to be spending far more time in and around the opposition box than many other far more expensive midfielders.

Hopes are high amongst Leicester fans that something special is brewing at the King Power Stadium, and Ayoze Perez could take his career to a whole other level under Brendan Rodgers. As such, £6.5 million seems like a snip for somebody who can offer up goals and assists for your team from midfield.
