Managers will be able to overhaul their squads ahead of the Premier League returning on Boxing Day

Fantasy Premier League managers will be able to make unlimited free transfers between Saturday 12 November at 13:30 following the Gameweek 16 deadline and before the Gameweek 17 deadline on Monday 26 December at 13:30 when the Premier League season has been adjusted to accommodate the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022.

At other times you are limited to 20 transfers in any single Gameweek. This rule does not apply when playing a Wildcard or a Free Hit Chip.

Two Wildcards

The Wildcard chip can be used twice a season. The first Wildcard will be available from the start of the season until Gameweek 16 on Saturday 12 November at 13:30.

The second Wildcard will be available after Monday 26 December 13:30, ahead of Gameweek 18, in readiness for the January transfer window opening and remain available until the end of the season.

The Wildcard chip is played when confirming transfers that cost points and can’t be cancelled once played.

Please note that when playing either a Wildcard or your Free Hit chip, any saved free transfers will be lost. You will be back to the usual one free transfer the following Gameweek.
