30) Thibaut Courtois (Chelsea)
The Chelsea stopper has established himself as one of the best goalkeepers in the world over the last three years, winning multiple awards during his loan spells with Atletico Madrid. Now back at Stamford Bridge, he will hope to prove himself at the Blue’s number one.
29) Angel di Maria (Real Madrid)
The Real Madrid and Argentina winger has been linked with a move away from the European Champions this summer, following the arrivals of Toni Kroos and James Rodriguez. Manchester United and PSG would be delighted to take the £45m rated winger.
28) Robert Lewandowski (Bayern Munich)
The 25-year-old Polish striker, coming off the back of four excellent years for former club Borussia Dortmund, could well prove the vital component for helping Bayern Munich reach a third Champions League final in four years.
27) Sergio Ramos (Real Madrid)
One of the stars of Real Madrid’s Champions League triumph, the hot-headed Spanish defender who can play as both a right back and a central defender, is still a vital player for both club and country.
26) Mesut Ozil (Arsenal)
Arsenal fans will expect a little more from their German playmaker this coming season, having made him their record signing when they paid £42.5m for him from Real Madrid last summer. The World Cup winner should certainly come in full of confidence.
