Jacob Murphy
31-Year-Old
Newcastle United
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Murphy broke onto the scene last season with Newcastle at the age of 30, reaching almost 2,400 minutes, a mark he had never come close to touching. He started 31 of 35 appearances while registering eight goals and 12 assists, earning a career-high in assists and goal contributions. Murphy capitalized his role following the departure of Miguel Almiron and since returning from shoulder surgery in January 2024, he's been a lock for the XI. The question is what his minutes will look like with newly added Anthony Elanga.
Four crosses Sunday
Murphy had one shot (one on goal), four crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Sunday's 2-1 defeat against Sunderland.
ANALYSIS
Murphy came off the bench Sunday and still saw some decent work in his 25 minutes of play, recording a shot and four crosses, although not enough to earn his club at least a point. He continues in more of a rotational role at this point in the season, recording four goal contributions in 26 appearances (14 starts), with a minimal three starts since the beginning of January.

Still not 100 percent

Yesterday was his first full training session. Again, another player that was there with us but slightly reluctant to use him."
