Nicolas Jackson sets new Premier League record

Nicolas Jackson has become one of the most sought-after players in Fantasy Premier League (FPL) following his impressive performances for Aston Villa, attracting millions of transfers ahead of Gameweek 9.

The Senegalese striker has enjoyed an excellent run of form, scoring four goals in his last four Premier League gameweeks. His recent brace against Manchester City has further increased his popularity among fantasy managers looking to strengthen their attacking options.

The Fantasy Premier League comfirmed the record set by Jackson on its official FPL account on October 31, 2026. The forward received more than 2.3 million transfers ahead of Gameweek 9, making him the most transferred-in player for the gameweek.

Jackson's growing popularity reflects the confidence fantasy managers have in his ability to deliver more goals and valuable points. The forward player's price has also increased following his impressive performances.

The Aston Villa forward rose to £6.9 million, highlighting the growing demand for his services among FPL managers. With Aston Villa enjoying a strong run of form and Jackson continuing to deliver in front of goal, fantasy managers will hope he maintains his impressive performances in the coming weeks.

Although his popularity is rising rapidly, Jackson will need to remain consistent to justify the confidence placed in him by millions of FPL managers.
