The time has come to begin creating your story Premier League team.
We've never even had the last of this season's two big tournaments, but now it's time to start thinking about your Fantasy Premier League team.
While most England fans will be somewhat concerned thinking about Sunday's Euro 2024 last against Spain and others may be ready for the Copa America finale between Argentina and Colombia later that night, the 2024/25 plan is now coming into focus.
As soon as the second player prices are revealed, prepare your spreadsheets and document up your earlier drafts of the teams you're creating to defeat your friends and win bragging rights.
And the FPL rulers have started with a bang, as they have revealed that Manchester City scorer Erling Haaland will be the most costly player in the show's record at a staggering £15million.
That sees the Scandinavian priced at £1million more than he was at the start of the 2023/24 time, despite him scoring nine fewer goals and claiming 55 fewer items than he did in his movie first year with Manchester City in 2022/23.
Never in the game's history has a player been priced at more than £14million at the start of a year, with Haaland's big price tag beating the likes of FPL ( and real life ) traditions Robin van Persie, Thierry Henry and Cristiano Ronaldo as the previous record holders.

Haaland's cost reveal comes as the start of a day where the rate of 20 people, one from each Premier League side, did been revealed. Other early reveals include a trio of newly promoted defenders in Ipswich Town's Leif Davis ( £4.5m ), Leicester City's Richardo Pereira ( £4.5m ) and Southampton's Taylor Harwood-Bellis ( £4m ), plus attacking north London midfielder Kai Havertz ( £8m ) and Richarlison ( £7m ), with more to come throughout the day.
The Premier League is yet to validate the official release date for the opposition, although followers will likely not have long to wait, as they agonise over whether Haaland remains a must-pick at that rate.
