Tennis star Sir Andy Murray says Erling Haaland will be his first pick in Fantasy Premier League this season despite his hefty price tag.

The Manchester City forward will cost a record-equalling £14.0m in FPL but Murray is unfazed and has already made the Norwegian his No 1 choice for 2023/24.

"It's got to be Haaland again," said Murray. "The guy's an absolute goal machine, so I would probably say him. But [Harry] Kane's not far behind."

Given the choice between winning Wimbledon again next week, or securing a second Olympic title or finishing as the world No 1 in Fantasy, Murray admits he is torn.

"I'd probably go Wimbledon, but it's tight between the three of them," he said. "It's close.

"I'm not exactly sure how well I finished [in my best season] but I did pretty well. I was in the top 100,000 I think, so that's a pretty decent result."

Murray is particularly keen to finish above his Davis Cup team-mate Neal Skupski.

"He puts more time in than anyone else," said Murray. "His knowledge isn't that high-level but he will spend hours on the apps and the websites, trying to get an edge, but he never manages to win."
