This talent will light up next season’s Premier League if our top clubs can secure their signatures…
After missing out on the likes of Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Isco, Edinson Cavani and Thiago – it’s fair to say that our top clubs are still licking their transfer window wounds.
If they manage to beat huge clubs from Germany, Spain and France to these five stars however, the first day of the Premier League season is going to look a great deal more exciting!
Here’s our top five players we hope will be playing Premier League football next season:
5) Christian Eriksen – Ajax
Interested clubs? Liverpool, Tottenham. (source: Sky Sports)
Ajax’s 21-year-old Danish playmaker has been mooted as a potential Premier League star for nearly three seasons, and it seems that this is the window he’ll finally leave his boyhood club. With AC Milan lurking, Spurs and Liverpool will do well to snap up the super-talented freekick specialist. £17m should tempt Ajax into selling the technically gifted midfielder, who has only one year to run on his contract. Eriksen has the ability to drift into pockets of space like Juan Mata and Santi Cazorla – and would add another attacking dimension to either of these English sides.
