Nobody, yet. As at 22 September 2026, no Premier League player is on four yellow cards. Six players are on three, two bookings from a ban.
The rule
The Premier League hands out the bans, not FPL. Five yellow cards in a club's first 19 league matches means a one-match ban. Ten in the first 32 means a two-match ban. After the 19th match, the five-card ban no longer applies, but the cards keep counting towards ten.
Every club has played five league matches. So each of these six needs two more yellows in the next fourteen to be banned.
The six on three yellow cards
| Player | Club | Position | Yellow cards | Owned |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dominic Calvert-Lewin | Leeds | Forward | 3 | 25.0% |
| Vitaly Janelt | Brentford | Midfielder | 3 | 2.5% |
| Oli McBurnie | Hull City | Forward | 3 | 1.9% |
| Matt Crooks | Hull City | Midfielder | 3 | 0.5% |
| Adam Smith | Bournemouth | Defender | 3 | 0.1% |
| Jacob Murphy | Newcastle | Midfielder | 3 | 0.1% |
26 more players are on two.
Who it matters for
Calvert-Lewin is the only one of the six with real ownership. A quarter of all FPL managers own him, and he is Leeds' first-choice penalty taker. A ban for him would move the whole field at once. A ban for any of the other five would cost almost nobody.
McBurnie is Hull City's only listed penalty taker. If he is banned, Hull have nobody named behind him.
Hull City have 18 yellow cards across the squad, the most of any club. They are also the only club with two players on three.
What to do with this
Nothing yet, for five of the six. For Calvert-Lewin owners, it is worth knowing before you plan a Wildcard or a Free Hit around him. One booking puts him on four, and from then on every Leeds match carries a ban risk.
