Jamal Musiala
Position: Midfielder
Price: 15M
Club: Bayern Munich
Musiala is an attractive option for a variety of reasons. Not only is he a first-team regular – he started 26 of Bayern’s Bundesliga matches last season – he also scored 12 goals and provided 10 assists, helping him finish among the top five Fantasy players overall for 2022/23.
The 20-year-old was listed as a forward in the game last season, but while his on-field position is unlikely to change under Thomas Tuchel, he is now a midfielder for Fantasy purposes. That means you’ll get the same Musiala magic, only this time with more points for every goal and assist. What’s not to love?

Randal Kolo Muani
Position: Forward
Price: 15M
Club: Eintracht Frankfurt
Another player who really needs no justification for his inclusion, Kolo Muani had more goal contributions than anyone else in the Bundesliga last term, scoring 15 himself and registering 11 assists.
So impressive was the Eintracht Frankfurt forward in his debut Bundesliga campaign that he became a full France international and even earned a place at the World Cup in Qatar.
With the likes of Mario Götze, Jesper Lindstrom and Paxten Aaronson pulling the strings behind him in Dino Toppmöller’s attack-minded side, the 24-year-old is sure to keep scoring – and getting you points. Not only that, but with Frankfurt playing on Thursdays in the UEFA Europa Conference League this term, the Eagles will have plenty of standalone Sunday fixtures for you to put your star on Kolo Muani.

Raphael Gueirreiro
Position: Defender
Price: 15M
Club: Bayern Munich
Guerreiro was the second-highest scoring defender in Fantasy terms last season and provided more assists than anyone else with 12.
Having swapped the Signal Iduna Park for the Allianz Arena over the summer, the Portugal international is now reunited with Tuchel - the duo previously worked together at Dortmund, where the nominal defender was often used in midfield or even on the wing.
That should help him settle in quickly, so just imagine what he can do in a free-scoring Bayern team that have plundered more goals than anyone else in recent years.

Dani Olmo
Position: Midfielder
Price: 14M
Club: RB Leipzig
Olmo is perhaps the biggest surprise on this list, given his 14M price tag and the fact he contributed a relatively low two goals and five assists last season - but hear us out. Those numbers are mitigated by the fact that the 25-year-old only made 23 Bundesliga appearances due to injury. The fact he’s also a regular starter in a supremely talented Spain side should swat away any lingering doubts.
With Christopher Nkunku and Dominik Szoboszlai having departed Leipzig over the summer, even more creative responsibility will fall on Olmo’s shoulders. Expect him to rise to the challenge and keep Marco Rose’s side firing with plenty of goals and assists.

Jonas Hofmann
Position: Midfield
Price: 15M
Club: Bayer Leverkusen
A unicorn in the Fantasy world, Hofmann is the kind of result-proof player who collects big points even if his side loses.
The 30-year-old scored a personal-best 12 goals and nine assists for an inconsistent Borussia Mönchengladbach side last term, and he is the highest scoring Fantasy player from 2022/23 who is available again this season.

His summer transfer to Bayer Leverkusen is an exciting one: Xabi Alonso is building a thrill-a-minute team, so with a place in the Germany squad to nail down ahead of next year’s European Championship on home soil, Hofmann is odds on to continue where he left off.
