Some players leave permanently in order to establish themselves elsewhere, while others go out on loan with hopes of catching the manager’s eye whilst away.

Francis Coquelin is a perfect example of the latter as he used his loan spell at Charlton last season to help establish himself in the Arsenal first team and he hasn’t looked back since.

The young American starlet was impressive at the FIFA U-20 World Cup this summer, with his tricks and flicks being shared around the world via social media.
