4 superstars who could join the English Premier League this summer

#2 Miralem Pjanic (Juventus to Chelsea)

AC ChievoVerona v Juventus FC - Serie A — The midfielder has attracted interest from many European elite clubs

Juventus ace Miralem Pjanic is one of the incredible superstars who could end up playing in the English Premier League next season. Following his impressive performances for the Bianconneri last term, Pjanic has attracted a lot of interest from many top European clubs ahead of the next campaign.

Catalan giants FC Barcelona have been tracking the player for quite some time as they aim to replace Andres Iniesta who departed the club recently.

However, Premier League outfit Chelsea have reportedly joined the race to sign the Bosnian and they have emerged as the red-hot favorites to lure him from the Italian league.

The Blues are reportedly willing to replace Antonio Conte with former Napoli boss Maurizio Sarri. The manager is believed to have a good relationship with the midfielder and The Blues are aiming to use that connection to lure him to Stamford Bridge.

Pjanic will definitely not come at a cheap price as Juventus have placed a £70 million price-tag on his head.
