8 Midfielders to watch out for in the 2017-18 FPL season

Chelsea FC v Perth Glory
Jorginho

#6 Alireza Jahanbakhsh (£7.0M)

Morocco v Iran: Group B - 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia

Buying such an expensive midfielder from a team like Brighton & Hove Albion does not seem like the best option but that is the type of hype which Alireza Jahanbakhsh brings.

The Iranian international is an attacking midfielder and likes to play as a winger. He was excellent at the 2018 world cup which is one of the reasons that led to his big-money move to Brighton & Hove Albion.

While I personally would not buy him from the start just due to his heavy price tag but I would definitely keep a close watch as he can turn out to be one of the stars of the season.
