Four goals in four gameweeks will get people talking, and Nicolas Jackson has fantasy football managers across the world paying close attention. The Senegalese striker, playing for Aston Villa, scored a brace against Manchester City that sent his stock soaring ahead of Gameweek 9.
On October 31, 2026, the official Fantasy Premier League account confirmed that Jackson had broken a record, pulling in more than 2.3 million transfers to become the most transferred-in player for the gameweek. That kind of movement is rare, and it speaks to how much confidence managers are placing in him right now.
His price reflects that confidence too. Jackson's FPL value climbed to £6.9 million following his recent performances, a steady rise that signals the market believes there is more to come from the forward.
Aston Villa are in good form as a team, which gives Jackson the platform to keep delivering. The real question now is whether he can stay consistent enough to reward the millions who have backed him with their precious transfers.
