John McGinn
31-Year-Old
Aston Villa
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
McGinn was ever-present for Villa in 2024/25, combining energy, leadership and clutch performances in big games. He chipped in one goal and four assists in the Premier League while often covering ground box-to-box. His pressing intensity and ability to carry the ball through midfield remained vital in Villa's most competitive stretches. Heading into 2025/26, McGinn is still a central figure but may face more rotation with added depth. His ability to play in multiple positions should remain a key to playing time, but as seen last season when he scored three goals in Champions League compared to one in domestic play, upside is mostly inconsistent.
Four completed crosses in loss
McGinn had five crosses (four accurate) and one corner in Wednesday's 3-0 loss against Brazil.
ANALYSIS
McGinn continued his run of playing more than 80 minutes in each of the three games in the group stage. While Scotland still have the opportunity to progress as a best third-placed team, McGinn scored Scotland's only goal of the group stage with the goal in the 1-0 win against Haiti. He has created a chance in each of the three group stage games. McGinn has also taken at least one corner in each of these games also.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Everton showing interest
Everton are expected to make a summer move to sign McGinn, according to Football Insider.
ANALYSIS
Even though McGinn has been a steady contributor for Villa in recent years, it wouldn't be shocking if he decides to leave the club in the summer, particularly with Everton keeping close tabs on him. The Toffees are likely to make an approach to sign McGinn in the summer, and if the offer satisfies Villa, a transfer could occur in the summer after the FIFA World Cup.
