5 best free kick takers in the Premier League at the moment 2022-23
By
Sushan Chakraborty Modified 06 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share English Premier League has no shortage of adept free kick takers The English Premier League is home to some of the most gifted free kick takers in the business. From finding the back of the net with a curling strike to teeing up a teammate with a peach of a delivery, these set-piece maestros can do it all. While some excellent set-piece takers, such as David Silva and Raphinha, have left the Premier League, there are still plenty of players who can entice viewers with their dead-ball wizardry.

#mufc https://t.co/CIDChmLurq Eriksen, who played his best football during his time at Tottenham Hotspur, is a brilliant set-piece taker, with a penchant for scoring direct free kicks. He has scored eight direct free kicks in the Premier League, the fourth highest in the history of the league. Given his obvious knack for scoring free kicks, Erik ten Hag would be wise to give him dead-ball responsibilities more often than not.

OptaJoe@OptaJoe7 - James Maddison has scored seven direct free-kick goals in the Premier League for @LCFC, which is half of their total goals from such situations in the competition.

https://t.co/ujXjAbQWe8 Scoring against Southampton on Premier League matchday three (August 20), Maddison became the first player to score a direct free kick in the 2022-23 campaign. His impeccable free kick goal was the highlight of the match but it could not secure maximum points for Leicester, with them ultimately succumbing to a 2-1 defeat. The former Norwich City man has thus far played 135 games in the English top flight, recording 35 goals and 24 assists.

#2 Kieran Trippier — Newcastle United

At Newcastle, however, he has emerged as their designated kick taker, and deservedly so. Trippier has thus far scored three free kicks in the Premier League, with all of them coming for the Magpies. Trippier’s latest direct free kick came earlier this season against Manchester City (August 21), with his strike helping his team to a 3-3 draw with the champions.
