Fantasy Premier League squad selection for 2019/20 is now open

The 2019/20 Premier League season is fast approaching, but for Fantasy Premier League players, the season starts now.

All the planning and plotting has been done, but it's now time to start picking your team.

Yes that's right, the 2019/20 FPL season is finally here, as you can now pick your FPL squad of 15 players.

You have until Gameweek 1, the deadline of Friday August 9 at 7pm, to make your team selections. You can make unlimited transfers until that date.

The very first game of the 2019/20 season sees Liverpool take on Norwich City, at 8pm on Friday August 9.

Last year, Mohamed Salah topped the points scoring charts, ahead of Eden Hazard, Raheem Sterling and Sadio Mane, but his price has actually fallen this year.

You can now pick your 2019/20 FPL squad here - on the Official Fantasy Premier League website.
