James Tarkowski
33-Year-Old
Everton
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Tarkowski put together another productive Premier League campaign, as he kept 10 clean sheets and recorded two goal contributions across 33 starts. He missed the final five matches with a hamstring injury, but that's not expected to take any time from him during the upcoming season. He's been remarkably consistent across the last eight Premier League seasons, hovering around 10 clean sheets and recording a couple goal contributions during his time at both Burnley and Everton. Given the stability of Everton's defense, there's no reason to believe Tarkowski won't be able to keep up his numbers next season. His consistent level of fitness and ability to keep clean sheets, in addition to providing the odd goal contribution, makes him a solid and reliable fantasy option for the 2025/26 season.
Goal and assist Sunday
Tarkowski scored one goal and assisted once from two shots and one chance created in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Crystal Palace.
ANALYSIS
Tarkowski was involved in both of his side's goals Saturday as he opened the scoring in the 6th minute with an unassisted strike, then assisted Beto's goal in the 47th minute with a through ball. He now has five goal contributions this season, three of which have come in his last three matches. He played well on the defensive end too as he recorded two tackles, one interception, seven clearances and two blocked shots in his full 90 minutes of action.
