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.
Logs three-save clean sheet
Pope registered three saves and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Aston Villa.
ANALYSIS
Pope logged an easy appearance in goal. The game's first half saw Aston Villa record zero shots on target, so all his action came later. Among the Villa team's three shots on goal, two were right at him, so he comfortably logged both saves. The other required Pope to make a dive, but he still saved an on-target shot by Donyell Malen. It was critical that Pope begin Newcastle's 2025-26 season right, especially considering its second game will see the defending Premier League champions (Liverpool) visit St. James' Park.

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.
