3) Aymeric Laporte – Atletico Bilbao (talkSPORT)
Rated by some as the best young defender in world football, Bilbao’s teenage centre-back has been a fixture in the Basque club’s impressive La Liga season. The team sits fourth, and partly have the form of the 19-year-old to thank.
Laporte’s passing and his tackling are particular strengths, and he also provides a threat from set-pieces as his two goals this season prove.
Barcelona and Arsenal are also interested, so United will do extremely well to sign the French wonderkid.
