Fantacalcio is the name of the premier Italian fantasy football game. And, because of its popularity and endurance, it has come to define fantasy sports games played across the Serie A. A good part of the season is already behind us. Today, we take a look at the players that have managed the highest number of FootballCoin in Serie A, in the 2019/20 season so far.
5. Papu Gomez (Atalanta) – 437 points
Alejandro Gomez has proven to be one of Atalanta’s best players in a season in which the club is desperately trying to confirm that last campaign’s performances were no accident. Fighting on numerous fronts, Atalanta is also qualified in the UEFA Champions League groups, the Italian side has benefitted from the consistency that Gomez offers.
The player has managed to score 4, assisted 5 times and has generally posed a threat to all defenses he has encountered. The Argentinian is rated as a 4 star player in FootballCoin and is available for use in both the Serie A and Champions League.
4. Francesco Acerbi (Lazio) – 450 points
A highly experienced player, Acerbi is making the best of his opportunity to represent one of Serie A’s top sides, Lazio. The central defender is the rare mix of a tough tackler with good technique, quality passing, and even an occasional goal scorer. His contribution has helped Lazio have one of the best defenses in Italy. The former Milan and Geno player is rated as 3 star player in FootballCoin contests.
3. Marcelo Brozovic (Inter) – 452 points
All Serie A players are part of games like FIFA 20, Football Manager 20 or FootballCoin, but Brozovic is hardly the most famous of what the Italian league has to offer. With that being said, Marcelo Brozovic has emerged this season as one of the top defenders in the Serie A. Notching points match after match, the 3 star rated player has been one of the Italian leaders’ best players. Should Inter manage what seemed unthinkable last year and win the Scudetto, Brozovic will be heralded as a hero in Milan.
2. Luis Alberto (Lazio) – 505 points
Luis Alberto’s career was in relative turmoil by the time that he joined Lazio in 2016. The player had represented Sevilla and Liverpool but had failed to make a considerable impact. Lazio proved to be an ideal home for the player and a brilliant fantasy football transfer.
In Rome, Alberto found his footing and, alongside Ciro Immobile, became a team leader. Alberto has managed a good chunk of his points through assists. He has managed 9 this season so far. He’s often been chosen Man of the match and the free player card is a must-have for all managers with an eye on the fantacalcio gazzetta.
1. Aleksandar Kolarov (AS Roma) – 571 points
Kolarov’s importance to AS Roma is no real shock. But, it is his appetite for playing and overachieving that may be of surprise. At 34 years old, the Serbian defender remains dominant in Italy’s premier competition. The left-back has proven to be one of the best players in his position across Europe. Regular matches see him shooting on goal, assisting and on four occasions even scoring. This is the way in which he earns points across fantacalcio 2019/20 contests. The average salary of Serie A players active for top clubs is around 3 million Euro. Kolarov earns 6 million Euro and not one penny looks to have ben wasted.
AS Roma are trailing Serie A leaders, Inter Milan, by 11 points. This will surely not be considered good enough by the club’s hierarchy. However, with Kolarov fit and in good form, there is still hope for the club to advance up the rankings.
