Goalkeepers may be the least important aspect of your Fantasy Premier League team, but a good one can still rack up major points throughout a season.

Manchester City and Liverpool boast the premium-cost stoppers this time around while Manchester United star David de Gea lags behind in cost after a wobbly year of uncertainty at Old Trafford.

There's a keeper for every price range, but how badly do you want a world class talent backing up your FPL line-up?

RadioTimes.com has rounded up the best Fantasy Premier League goalkeepers you should look to sign for your FPL team.

Ederson (Man City) – £6.0m (Owned by: 18.4%)

The battle between Ederson and Alisson will be fascinating this season, but the City stopper just about edges the contest in FPL.

Liverpool have three incredible defensive options – Andy Robertson, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk – to choose from while City lack the same level of attacking dominance in their backline.

Stock up on Reds defenders, but still take home a slice of City’s clean sheets by including Ederson in your line-up.

Jordan Pickford (Everton) – £5.5m (Owned by: 11.0%)

Everton got their act together by the end of last season and will hope for a big year in 2019/20.

Pickford came third to only Ederson and Alisson in the goalkeeper totals and will shave off a crucial £0.5m if you desperately need it elsewhere.

Lukasz Fabianski (West Ham) – £5.0m (Owned by: 10.2%)

Arguably the best budget option going into the new season.

West Ham will hope for greater consistency in 2019/20 and that will only come by focusing on shoring up the defence.

Kasper Schmeichel (Leicester) – £5.0m (Owned by: 5.1%)
