2025 Fantasy Outlook
Fernandes posted a solid inaugural EPL season in 2024/25. The 20-year-old attacking midfielder joined Saints from Sporting at the start of the season, he was unable to break into the starting lineup there and spent the 2023/24 season on loan to Estoril Praia. His attacking statistics from 2024/25 do not represent the high work rate he exhibited on the field; from 36 appearances (34 starts) he netted two and provided four assists, but he consistently showed strength in long crosses, high pressing and tackling (2.5 per game). He was starved of service and support last season but he will have a good chance to ratchet up a better goal tally in the Championship as he and his teammates faces second tier competition.
Provides assist in win
F/MWest Ham United
February 8, 2026
Fernandes assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-0 win versus Burnley.
ANALYSIS
Fernandes assisted the opener with a driving run through midfield before threading Crysencio Summerville clean through for the 13rd minute finish. He dictated the tempo of West Ham United's transitions early on, repeatedly carrying the ball at speed to flip Burnley around and force them to defend facing their own goal. After the Hammers went two goals clear, he dropped into game management mode, shoring things up with three tackles won, two interceptions and two blocks while helping see the match out.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Saints reject first offer
F/MSouthampton
August 14, 2025
Southampton have rejected West Ham's first approach for Fernandes, according to The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
The Saints aren't keen on parting ways with Fernandes unless a club meets their valuation. West Ham's opening offer for 21-year-old Portuguese midfielder was worth £30 million plus add-ons. They'll need to aim higher if they're going to complete the signature of the talented playmaker before the end of the transfer period.
