With the Euros upon us, it’s the perfect time to build your fantasy team and dominate your leagues. Here’s why you should consider these top performers from Group A:
1. Maximilian Mittelstädt (DEF, €4.0m)
Looking for a budget-friendly defender with high potential? Maximilian Mittelstädt is your guy. This German left-back has secured a starting spot and even scored in a recent friendly against the Netherlands.
With Germany playing at home and determined to redeem themselves after recent disappointments, Mittelstädt offers exceptional value compared to Antonio Rüdiger (€6.0m) and even Jonathan Tah (€4.5m) for slightly more guaranteed minutes. Mittelstädt is a hidden gem waiting to shine.
2. Florian Wirtz (MID, €7.5m)
Florian Wirtz is a rising star you don’t want to miss. Bursting onto the scene with 11 goals and 11 assists in just 26 Bundesliga starts, Wirtz is set to be a key player in Germany’s midfield. He’s likely to get more minutes than İlkay Gündogan or Kai Havertz, who might be subbed off earlier. Wirtz’s combination of skill and opportunity makes him a must-have for your fantasy team.
3. Kai Havertz (FWD, €8.0m)
Kai Havertz might be listed as a forward, but he offers incredible value. With Germany potentially lacking natural goal-scorers, Havertz could be their main attacking threat and might even take on penalty duties, reflecting his strong finish at Arsenal last season. Don’t let slightly lower expected minutes deter you—Havertz is poised to deliver when it counts.
4. Jamal Musiala (MID, €8.5m)
Investing in Jamal Musiala could be your winning move. His impressive performances at Bayern Munich highlight his immense potential. Although he comes with a higher price tag than Wirtz or Havertz, Musiala’s influence on Germany’s Euro ambitions makes him worth every penny. His creativity and skill are bound to translate into significant fantasy points.
5. İlkay Gündogan (MID, €7.0m)
For a more budget-friendly midfield option, İlkay Gündogan is a smart pick. Known for his late runs into the box, Gündogan’s knack for scoring could be invaluable. While his minutes might be a bit uncertain due to competition from Thomas Müller and potential wingers like Leroy Sane, Gündogan’s goal-scoring ability makes him a worthy addition to your squad.
6. Dominik Szoboszlai (HUN, MID, €7.0m)
Dominik Szoboszlai is an under-the-radar gem you should consider. As Hungary’s set-piece maestro, including penalties, Szoboszlai will be crucial for their attacking success. Despite a dip in form at Liverpool, Hungary’s potential to finish second in the group makes him an intriguing option. His set-piece prowess can earn you unexpected fantasy points.
7. Loïc Nego (HUN, DEF, €4.0m)
Looking for a budget defender with attacking potential? Loïc Nego is your answer. Returning as a budget-friendly wingback, Nego’s positioning and previous popularity make him a smart pick. Although his minutes might not be guaranteed, his attacking potential can lead to valuable fantasy points.
8. Silvan Widmer (SUI, DEF, €4.5m)
Silvan Widmer offers a blend of defensive solidity and attacking flair. Starting recent friendlies for Switzerland, Widmer plays for a solid Swiss defense and has created eight big chances in the Bundesliga. Despite a potential rotation risk, Widmer’s offensive potential makes him a valuable asset at a reasonable price.
9. Yann Sommer (SUI, GK, €5.0m)
If you want a reliable goalkeeper, Yann Sommer is your man. With 19 clean sheets for Inter Milan this season, Sommer’s quality is undeniable. Though slightly pricier, his consistent performance and ability to earn clean sheets make him a strong choice for your goalkeeping duties.
10. Xherdan Shaqiri (SUI, MID, €6.5m)
Don’t overlook Xherdan Shaqiri for your fantasy team. Despite modest club form, Shaqiri often shines in international tournaments. His role on penalties and corners, combined with significant playing time, can turn him into a fantasy points machine. Shaqiri’s knack for delivering on the big stage makes him a valuable pick.
11. Andrew Robertson (SCO, DEF, €5.5m)
Andrew Robertson is a tempting pick for your defense. At €5.5m, he offers great value, especially with Scotland’s attacking focus likely flowing through the left flank in the absence of key right backs. Robertson’s attacking role as a wingback means he can contribute both defensively and offensively, boosting your fantasy team’s score.
