With the news that Leicester captain Kasper Schmeichel has agreed a deal to join Nice, Ward could find himself as Leicester's number one keeper come the start of the season and would be the cheapest starting keeper available. The Welsh international has a reliable defence in front of him and could be one of the biggest bargains at the start of your FPL season.
2. Gavin Bazunu - £4.5 million

How can we not put Southampton's new goalkeeper on the list? After shining on the international stage over the past year and a fantastic season for Portsmouth last season, Bazunu is about to embark on his first season playing Premier League football. If his performances for Ireland and Pompey is anything to go by, signing Bazunu at the cut price of £4.5 million could be one of the biggest bargains in this year's FPL.
3. Dean Henderson - £4.5 million
We are delighted to announce the loan signing of Manchester United and England goalkeeper Dean Henderson. ✍️
🌳🔴 #NFFC | #PL— Nottingham Forest FC (@NFFC) July 2, 2022
After finding minutes with Manchester United difficult to come by last year because of a resurgance in form from David De Gea, Dean Henderson has joined Play Off winners Nottingham Forest on loan until the end of the season. The 25-year-old impressed during his first full season in the Premier League under Chris Wilder at Sheffield United where he earned a huge 160 points in FPL, with just Nick Pope performing better during the 2019/20 season.
4. Robert Sanchez - £4.5 million
Many people could be surprised to see Brighton's shot stopper Robert Sanchez so cheap this season. The Spaniard kept 11 clean sheets for Graham Potter's side, earning 126 points across the season. If you're looking for an established Premier League keeper at a cut price, Sanchez could be the man to go for, especially if he shows similar form to last season.
5. Sam Johnstone - £4.5 million
The secret signing.
Welcome to Palace, Sam 😍#CPFC— Crystal Palace F.C. (@CPFC) July 1, 2022
England international Sam Johnstone completed his move from West Brom to Crystal Palace at the start of the transfer window. Patrick Viera used Vincente Guaita as his number one keeper last season with Jack Butland as number two, but the arrival of Johnstone will likely lead to huge competition between the three shot stoppers. Guaita has been a solid keeper for Palace over the years but he can be prone to an error and Johnstone could find himself as first choice keeper over the coming weeks.

6. Mark Travers - £4.5 million
Irish international Mark Travers had quite the season with Bournemouth last season and was instrumental to the Cherries' promotion back to the Premier League. The Maynooth native remains the club's first choice shot stopper and will play regularly if he continues the same form that he showed last year. At this price, Travers has to be included in your FPL squad even as a backup keeper.
7. Bernd Leno - £4.5 million
🚨. Fulham and #AFC have resumed talks over a deal for goalkeeper Bernd Leno, with a £8m deal being discussed. ⚫⚪
The structure of payments and add-ons are currently being finalised. 📝— Sky Sports Premier League (@SkySportsPL) July 26, 2022
It's safe to say that Bernd Leno's time at the Emirates hasn't gone according to plan. He began last season as Mikel Arteta's first choice, but after the arrival of Aaron Ramsdale, he's fallen down the pecking order. With talks of a move to Fulham circulating, it would certainly be a great move for the German who is in need of first-team football. At a price of £4.5 million and being an almost nailed on starter for Fulham, Leno could be the answer to a number of people's goalkeeping position.
