Transfers so far
Transfers beyond the free ones cost 4 points each, the charge FPL managers call a hit. FPL publishes the total number of transfers per gameweek but not how the hits are spread across managers, so this page counts the transfers alone.
- Managers have made 39M transfers in 2026/27 up to and including gameweek 3.
- That is 3.6 transfers per registered manager, teams that have already stopped playing included.
