8) Matthijs de Ligt

Arguably the very best young player in the world at the moment, Ajax defender Matthijs de Ligt is sure to follow Frenkie de Jong in leaving the Amsterdam giants in the near future.

The 19-year-old will have a long list of suitors, though Sport suggest Barcelona are lining up a move and are confident of winning the race for his signature within the next month.

Tuttosport recently also linked De Ligt with Juventus and Manchester United, and we’d love to see him try his luck in the Premier League.

9) Leon Bailey

Despite going slightly off the boil in the second half of this season, 20-year-old winger Leon Bailey has looked hugely impressive at Bayer Leverkusen.

It was claimed by the Metro earlier this season that Chelsea had made an approach for the Jamaica international, and he could be an ideal replacement if Eden Hazard does end up leaving.

A free-kick specialist and highly entertaining player to watch, Bailey surely has a big future in the game and could surely add something to most top PL clubs.

10) Tahith Chong

One of the most promising talents coming through at Manchester United, Tahith Chong has been eased into the first-team a little more this season.

However, he could be on the move this summer on loan, according to the Sun, and would be a fine signing for whoever gets him.

MUFC fans would surely be eager to see how Chong does with more regular football elsewhere, and he’ll be one to watch if he does get a temporary move away from Old Trafford.
