Jan-Niklas Beste
26-Year-Old
SC Freiburg
Bundesliga

Held to bench role
Beste made 12 appearances and no starts during his return to the Bundesliga with Freiburg.
ANALYSIS
Beste was brilliant with Heidenheim in 2023 before making a move to Portugal that failed and saw him sent back to Germany with Freiburg. He wasn't necessarily awful in Freiburg, but Beste didn't do enough to earn a significant role in the starting XI and didn't really show the upside he had with Heidenheim.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Eagles looking at him
Beste could move to the Premier League and join Crystal Palace in 2025, according to BBC.
ANALYSIS
The 25-year-old Benfica winger is under contract with the Portuguese giants, but his recent displays, particularly in the Champions League, are catching the eye of several teams in the top European leagues. It seems Palace have moved quicker than other teams and could make a switch for the German, who has two assists in 16 matches between the Primeira Liga and the UCL in 2024/25.
