Top 50 Premier League imports of the last 5 years: Aguero, Hazard & Ozil with Liverpool, Man Utd & Spurs signings

Posted by

40) Rafael van der Vaart

A hugely exciting signing for Tottenham at the time, Rafael van der Vaart joined from Real Madrid and became an instant fans’ favourite at White Hart Lane.

39) Gylfi Sigurdsson

Initially joining Swansea on loan from Hoffenheim, Gylfi Sigurdsson quickly became one of the Premier League’s top midfielders, though he flopped slightly at Tottenham before returning to the Liberty Stadium.

38) Bastian Schweinsteiger

One of the biggest names and most successful players of his generation, Bastian Schweinsteiger is yet to get going for Manchester United but is a great addition to the Premier League.

37) Xherdan Shaqiri

Another new signing this summer, Xherdan Shaqiri could be brilliant if he fulfills his potential with Stoke, having struggled at Bayern Munich and Inter Milan.

36) Fernandinho

A key part of Manchester City’s title-winning team, Fernandinho is a terrific box-to-box player who regularly dominates games with his energy and quality.

35) Toby Alderweireld

Terrific on loan at Southampton last season, Toby Alderweireld now looks a top summer signing for Tottenham this year.

34) Aleksandar Kolarov

With his superb left foot, Aleksandar Kolarov has really made his mark since joining Manchester City in 2010, winning two titles and scoring some wondergoals from left-back.

33) Memphis Depay

One of the best prospects in Europe, Memphis Depay has not taken long to settle at Manchester United since his move this summer.

32) Ander Herrera

An underrated talent, Ander Herrera enjoyed a fine first season at Old Trafford and looks well worth the £30m paid for him.

31) Mario Balotelli

Signed by City as one of the best young talents in the world in 2010, it’s fair to say Mario Balotelli didn’t quite live up to that, though he provided some memorable moments at the Etihad Stadium, before totally flopping in his single season at Liverpool.
