Mikkel Damsgaard
25-Year-Old
Brentford
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Damsgaard's third season in Brentford was a revelation. He snatched a spot in the starting XI, played every Premier League match and nearly surpassed 3,000 minutes. He finished with nine assists and 63 chances created, as the connecting piece between the midfield and attack. He figures to be a key part of a new Brentford going forward, and with a role on set pieces, his numbers should only grow. The question is if his goalscoring will ever grew after getting seven shots on target last season, paltry numbers given his position.
Dazzles in playmaking role
Damsgaard recorded two goals and nine assists across 38 appearances (34 starts) in the Premier League.
ANALYSIS
Damsgaard recorded only two assists across 49 appearances (16 starts) in his first two seasons with Brentford, but he pulverized those numbers in 2024/25 and had a career-best season while thriving in a playmaking role in the final third. While he operated on the left flank at times, Damsgaard's best moments came when he played as an AMC while being flanked by the duo of Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa on the wings. Damsgaard figures to be a regular for Brentford again in 2025/26 even if the club adds depth in the final third during the summer transfer window.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Three EPL sides keen on him
Three Premier League teams are interested in making a move for Damsgaard before the transfer window closes, according to The Sport Witness.
ANALYSIS
Damsgaard was one of the best players for Denmark in the Euro 2020 and starred for the Scandinavian side -- those performances might fetch a move to a bigger team. Tottenham seem to have dropped out of the race to sign him, but Liverpool, Leeds and Aston Villa may make a late move for the Sampdoria winger.
