Fantasy Premier League announce 2025/26 position changes | OneFootball

Fantasy Premier League is due to return for the 2025/26 season imminently and the game has announced several position changes for the new season.

A total of 11 players have been reclassified for the 2025/26 campaign, potentially boosting or decreasing their appeal to FPL managers.

Matheus Cunha is arguably the most prominent player to have had a positional change this season. The Brazilian has been reclassified from a forward to a midfielder, meaning he will now receive an additional point per goal and be eligible for clean sheet points.

Cunha scored 15 goals in the Premier League last season, earning a £62.5m transfer from Wolves to Manchester United.

Jarrod Bowen is among the player who have moved in the opposite direction. The West Ham captain is now classed as a forward in FPL. A fantasy favourite in recent seasons, the change perhaps reduces his appeal.

Other interesting changes are Cody Gakpo (Liverpool) and Omar Marmoush (Man City) from forward to midfielders. Marmoush scored seven times in 16 league appearances for City, following his January arrival from Eintracht Frankfurt.

Elsewhere, Myles Lewis-Skelly (Arsenal) and Keane Lewis-Potter (Brentford) have been reclassified from midfielders to defenders.
