2025 Fantasy Outlook
Lukic had a quiet 2024/25 campaign, as he failed to score a goal despite making 28 starts, his most since 2021/22 with Torino. He still served an important role in defensive midfield and showed signs of being a creator with 26 chances created and 62 crosses (22 accurate), mostly due to an on-and-off set-piece role. Lukic looks set to be part of Fulham's starting XI again next season, but that will likely not translate into him being a reliable fantasy option. With only three goal contributions in 66 Premier League appearances, he's clearly not much of a threat going forward and is often substituted off early which denies him the chance of earning clean sheets. Even though he should again start most matches, most of his fantasy production comes from the defensive variety.
Forced off as precaution
Lukic (groin) was forced off as a precaution at halftime during Wednesday's 2-1 defeat against Newcastle in the Carabao Cup due to feeling his groin, coach Marco Silva said in a press conference, according to Jack Kelly from Fulhamish. "Sasa was feeling the groin. Was a precaution."
ANALYSIS
Lukic couldn't carry on for the second half of Wednesday's clash against the Magpies in the Carabao Cup since he felt something in his groin and was forced off as a precaution. This issue shouldn't make him a big doubt for Monday's clash against Nottingham Forest since he has some time to recover before the game, but his situation has to be monitored since he remains a regular starter for Fulham, although he lost his starting spot in the last weeks.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Roma want him
Roma are interested in signing Lukic and are pushing to complete a move during the January transfer window, according to Calciomercato.
ANALYSIS
Roma want to bolster their midfield depth and Lukic could be an attractive option since he can play in several different positions. Il Toro are asking for €15 million, though, so Roma can either try to lower that figure or add another player in potential negotiations.
