The whole board
Every Serie A club is in the pool
All 20 clubs, every player at each of them, priced against the rest of Europe rather than against each other.
Who actually scored
The Serie A players worth owning
Italy has the deepest pool in the game — more priced players than any other league — and the strangest shape to it. Only one forward made the top ten last season. Three defenders did. Clean sheets are the currency here, and a game that pays a defender four points for one and six for a goal rewards Italian football more than it rewards anywhere else. Ranked by points returned last season — no editorial thumb on the scale, and every number read straight out of the game's own pool.

| Malen | Roma | MID | £9.9m | 186 |
| Mancini | Roma | DEF | £9.0m | 178 |
| Carnesecchi | Atalanta | GK | £7.6m | 171 |
| Yıldız | Juventus | MID | £8.9m | 171 |

Where the value is
The players below all cost £5.5m or less and all started regularly. A squad that fills its bench and its fourth and fifth defenders from this list is a squad that can afford two of the names in the table above — which is the whole trade every manager is making, every week.
| Player | Club | Pos | Price | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Murić | Sassuolo | GK | £5.5m | 114 |
| Bartesaghi | AC Milan | DEF | £4.8m | 104 |
| Paleari | Torino | GK | £5.2m | 99 |
| Marín | Napoli | DEF | £4.2m | 93 |
| Casadei | Torino | MID | £5.5m | 93 |
| Giovane | Napoli | FWD | £4.5m | 90 |
How to use this league
Keep your favourites. Add the rest of Europe.
You do not have to choose. Take the Serie A players you would never sell, then fill the rest from Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga or Ligue 1. The squad rules are the only limit: 15 players, £100m, three per club.
Buy the defence, not the attack
Serie A put three defenders in its top ten last season and exactly one forward. If you are building around Italian football, that is the instruction: take the defenders and the wing-backs, and buy your goals in a league that produces them more cheaply.
This is also the league where a goalkeeper is worth thinking hard about. Italian keepers face fewer shots and keep more clean sheets, and a keeper is the one position where you are buying a club's defence rather than a player.
Questions
Fantasy Serie A, answered
Why are Serie A defenders so highly rated here?
Because the scoring rewards them and Italian football produces them. A clean sheet pays a defender 4 points and a goal pays 6, and Serie A sides keep more clean sheets than any other league in the pool. Three of the ten highest scorers in Serie A last season were defenders.
Is there a fantasy Serie A game in English?
Yes. Fantasy Football Europe covers all 20 Serie A clubs and 646 Serie A players in English, with the same rules as Fantasy Premier League. You can build a squad entirely from Serie A, or mix Serie A players with players from the other four of Europe's top leagues in the same team.
Can I build a squad only from Serie A?
You can. Last season the best legal XI drawn only from Serie A cost £83.8m of the £100m budget and returned 1797 points. Most managers use a league they know as the core and fill the rest of the squad from wherever the value is.
How many Serie A players are there to choose from?
646 in total across 20 clubs, of whom 302 played enough football last season to be worth owning. Prices run from £4.0m to £10.6m.
Is it free?
Yes — free to play, no entry fee, and it runs in any browser with nothing to download.
