Tijjani Reijnders of Man City is Most Transferred in FPL Player

Manchester City midfielder Tijjani Reijnders has become the most transferred in FPL player after his impressive Premier League debut. 

Reijnders who joined from AC Milan in June, directly contributed to two goals as Man City beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 4-0.

On the back of their opening-day victory, Man City’s odds of winning the title have shrunk. They are now 3/1 with football betting sites to win the Premier League title.

Tijjani Reijnders Impresses on Premier League Debut

Netherlands international Tijjani Reijnders started at the heart of the Man City midfield as they began their Premier League campaign with a clash against Wolves.

Reijnders got on the scoresheet in the 37th minute, applying a thumping left-footed finish to send the ball into the bottom-right corner. Oscar Bobb provided the assist.

The former Milan midfielder added an assist to his goal just past the hour mark. After a clever exchange with Bobb, the 27-year-old slipped Erling Haaland through in the 18-yard box. The Norwegian effortlessly sent the ball into the bottom-left corner to double his tally.

Reijnders also played 52 accurate passes — with seven of them into the final third — won four ground duels, and drew two fouls.

On the back of Tijjani Reijnders’ eye-catching debut, which saw him score 10 points, nearly 700,000 FPL managers have transferred him to their teams. This has made him the most transferred in player in the game.

Reijnders is also one of the few players who have seen their prices rise ahead of Gameweek 2.
