Nick Pope
33-Year-Old
Newcastle United
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Pope finished year three with Newcastle in decent form but still not at his best, reclaiming the starting role for 28 appearances, only missing time due to an injury in December. He had eight clean sheets for a clean sheet every three-and-a-half games, a bit worse than his clean sheet every three games from the previous season. Newcastle had ups and downs throughout the season, but they still have a compact group that can keep anyone scoreless if they're playing at their best. If he can stay healthy and keep the starting gig for 30-plus games, Pope should be headed for 10-plus clean sheets in 2025/26.
Three saves in win
Pope recorded three saves and allowed three goals in Wednesday's 4-3 win versus Leeds United.
ANALYSIS
Pope made at least three saves for a 10th time in 15 league appearances this season. On the other hand, this marked the third time that he conceded a season-high three goals. Up next in league play for Newcastle United is a meeting with Wolverhampton on January 18.

Battling illness ahead of Tuesday
Pope is a late call for Tuesday's match against Burnley due to an illness, according to manager Eddie Howe. "Nick had really limited training time for (the Manchester United) game. He declared himself fit and then was subsequently ill right before kick-off and wasn't feeling great, so it was probably fortunate that he wasn't playing (on Boxing Day). I'll take a view from the training that I see, although it's been limited so far. I need to see that Nick's back to his very best - and Aaron's played well in his absence, so I'll make a call."

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Not keen on leaving Newcastle
Pope is not interested in leaving Newcastle United in the summer, according to TBR Football.
ANALYSIS
The 33-year-old goalkeeper isn't keen on leaving Newcastle United, and his reluctance to agree to terms with other clubs could complicate the chances of Newcastle signing a new goalkeeper in the summer. Newcastle has been linked with a move for James Trafford, but that won't progress if Pope doesn't leave the side.
