Reece James (2018-19 - Wigan Athletic)

Reece James has been a revelation, to say the least. He has been the soul of Wigan Athletic and has carried them on his back throughout the season. James has been perhaps the most important player for Wigan, and his performances have not gone unnoticed.

A versatile fullback and an equally capable holding midfielder, James showcases physicality and versatility in every move. He is a star in the making.

Reece is very mobile on the field and is a fantastic crosser of the ball. He has some serious pace that could help in one-on-one situations with quick wingers.

With Cesar Azpiliceuta aging, Chelsea need to look with long term vision and deputize James. Considering his age, James has time on his side and can slowly grow into his role.

James has to be at Stamford Bridge next season, learning and playing his way to becoming a vital cog of the Chelsea system.
