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.
Third season sees improvement
Pope logged 28 appearances (28 starts) with 35 goals allowed, 88 saves (one penalty) and eight clean sheets during Newcastle's 2024-25 season.
ANALYSIS
The 2024-25 Premier League marked Pope's third season for Newcastle. As long as Pope stayed healthy, which the goalkeeper relatively did, he was bound for a quantitative improvement. Compared to Pope's first Newcastle season, his third was relatively down. Despite averaging more saves, 3.1 per appearance, Pope allowed more goals than he logged saves and failed to record double-digit clean sheets. But multiple weeks after Pope fully recovered from a winter knee injury, his form picked up, culminating with 11 appearances that saw him log 31 saves, nine goals conceded and five clean sheets (one penalty), which allows the goalkeeper to enter next season on an excellent note.

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.
