FPL Gameweek 31 Deadline
Deadline time, top transfers, and captain picks for GW31.
The Gameweek 31 deadline locks all FPL squads on Saturday, 10 April 2027 at 13:30 BST. After this point, no transfers, captaincy changes, or chip activations can be made until the following gameweek opens. Planning your moves before the cut-off is essential to avoid panic decisions and missed price changes.
With Groß leading the transfer charts at +940,633 net transfers in, followed by Schade (+498,303), the community is clearly signalling their preferred moves for GW31. On the captaincy front, Groß (form 15.5, owned by 30.4%) emerges as the standout armband candidate this week. Review the checklist and tables below to finalise your squad before time runs out.
