5 forgotten football stars who are back in form this season

3) Edin Dzeko

Premier League fans might have forgotten about Edin Dzeko and not many can blame them for it either. Ever since he left Manchester City, the striker has fallen off the radar. He enjoyed a see-sawing career at the SkyBlues in 5 seasons.

The Bosnian hitman netted 72 goals in over a hundred appearances in those 5 seasons with his best return coming in 2013/14 when he scored 26 in all competitions. He was pretty much a bench player in his last season only scoring 6 times.

When City did not have any takers after putting him up for sale, they loaned him out to Roma. The striker failed to re-ignite the spark in the first season despite getting regular game time.

10 goals in his 29 appearances did not scream quality but Roma decided to put faith in the striker and signed him on a permanent deal. So far this season, he has really stepped up and delivered for the club.

He has already notched 10 league goals in 11 appearances and has 12 in all competitions. He currently leads the charts for goals scored across Europe. If he continues this vein of form he even has a shot at bagging the golden boot come end of the season.
