Jacob Murphy
30-Year-Old
Newcastle United
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Murphy broke onto the scene last season with Newcastle at the age of 30, reaching almost 2,400 minutes, a mark he had never come close to touching. He started 31 of 35 appearances while registering eight goals and 12 assists, earning a career-high in assists and goal contributions. Murphy capitalized his role following the departure of Miguel Almiron and since returning from shoulder surgery in January 2024, he's been a lock for the XI. The question is what his minutes will look like with newly added Anthony Elanga.
Assists Tuesday
Murphy assisted once to go with three shots (two on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Tuesday's 3-0 win over Benfica.
ANALYSIS
Murphy was back in the team Tuesday and back with a goal contribution during the win. The winger set up a goal on his only chance created, while nearly finishing one himself. Murphy has plenty of upside and the talent to cause issues in all competitions, though like the rest of the Newcastle attack, he's been rotated frequently.
