The short answer
Dominic Calvert-Lewin has scored three goals across his last two pre-season matches and costs £6.0m in FPL.
He followed a brace against Liverpool with the opening goal in Leeds' 2-0 win over RB Leipzig on 8 August.
That makes him one of the more reliable-looking £6.0m forwards, but do not add unconfirmed penalty duties to his case.
Latest form
| Opponent | Goals |
|---|---|
| Liverpool | 2 |
| RB Leipzig | 1 |
| Total | 3 |
Against Leipzig, Joe Rodon crossed from the right and Calvert-Lewin finished from close range in the seventh minute. The friendly lasted 120 minutes, so minutes need that context.
Why £6.0m works
Calvert-Lewin scored 14 Premier League goals and collected 142 FPL points last season.
At this price, managers need regular starts and central goal threat, not premium-level output.
Early fixtures
| GW | Fixture |
|---|---|
| 1 | Nottingham Forest away |
| 2 | Brentford home |
| 3 | Brighton away |
| 4 | Aston Villa home |
The run is playable without being exceptional.
Comparison at £6.0m
| Player | Main appeal | Main uncertainty |
|---|---|---|
| Calvert-Lewin | Proven PL output and form | Fitness |
| Igor Jesus | Strong pre-season scoring | Forest competition |
| Yoane Wissa | Two goals under Jaissle | Newcastle hierarchy |
| William Osula | Strong finish last season | New coach |
| Gonzalo García | Fulham upside | Role and adaptation |
Calvert-Lewin's advantage is that his Premier League scoring record is already proven.
What about penalties?
Do not select him on an unverified penalty assumption. The hierarchy should be judged from actual Leeds evidence.
OneFPL verdict
Calvert-Lewin is one of the safer £6.0m forward options. Three goals in two friendlies are positive, while 14 league goals last season provide the stronger evidence.
