2025 Fantasy Outlook
Sels was one of the surprises in the Premier League during the 2024/25 season, taking a share of the Golden Glove. It was his first full season with the team after transferring from Strasbourg, not missing a minute, starting all 38 games. He secured 13 clean sheets, tying for first in the league with David Raya. Even better for fantasy purposes is that he made 120 saves and allowed just 46 goals. Nottingham Forest figure to have some kind of drop defensively, but the saves should be there for Sels, which could make him a top-five goalkeeper again.
Off at halftime
Sels was forced off at halftime of Sunday's match against Crystal Palace due to an apparent injury.
ANALYSIS
Sels would leave the field at halftime of Sunday's match and appears to be set for some testing after exiting with an apparent injury. This is a major loss for the club as they have to do without their regular starter in net for the time being, and last season's Golden Glove winner, leaving a hole in the team if he misses further time. The good news for the club is they recently signed Stefan Ortega on loan, who could be a starting keeper in most squads, likely to serve as his replacement moving forward, despite Angus Gunn getting the nod Sunday.
