Luke Shaw (Southampton)

This talented young defender has burst onto the scene this season in the Premier League in his first season in the Southampton first team. Luke Shaw is a 17-year-old left-back who could become the latest product of the Saints’ famed youth academy to become a star of English football. Compared to a young Gareth Bale with his ability going forward, he has attracted strong interest from Arsenal, Manchester United and Tottenham, though it is believed that Chelsea are winning the race to sign him this summer. The youngster has himself admitted to being a boyhood Chelsea fan, and though Southampton will fight hard to keep him, it will be difficult for him to turn down a move to a big club that he is obviously fond of. Mourinho will recognise that Ashley Cole is getting older and possibly past his best, and Shaw would be an excellent long-term replacement for the Blues in that position. He won’t come cheap, but Chelsea can afford it, and may make an exception here in their policy of signing more experienced, big-name players, as Shaw looks certain to be a star of the future.
