One of the best strikers in world football, Erling Braut Haaland has been understandably attracting interest from the top European clubs.

After a stellar campaign with Red Bull Salzburg, Haaland joined Borussia Dortmund in January 2020. The Norway international has been phenomenal for the Bundesliga giants, making 59 appearances in all competitions, scoring 57 goals and providing 15 assists.

It has been clear for some time that Haaland will not stay at Borussia Dortmund for long. Before joining the German club, the 20-year old was heavily linked with Manchester United, who still remain interested in signing the player.

Chelsea have been persistently suggested as an option while Manchester City, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern Munich are all tracking him.


#2 Jack Grealish (Aston Villa)

Jack Grealish was one of the best players in the Premier League last season. This means Aston Villa will have to do everything they can to keep hold of their talisman and captain.

A product of the Aston Villa academy, Grealish made 24 starts in the Premier League last season, scoring six goals and providing 10 assists. The England international has been appreciated for his dribbling ability, creativity and passing.

Grealish, who is currently with the England squad at the Euros, has been recently linked with a potential big-money move to Manchester City. There have also been suggestions that Emiliano Buendia, who has been signed from Norwich City, is a replacement for Grealish.

Harry Kane is currently busy at the Euros. However, his transfer saga could take a prominent place in the headlines once the tournament ends. Reliable reports confirmed a few months ago that Kane wanted to leave Tottenham Hotspur this summer.

The England international enjoyed arguably his best season in professional football last time around, making 35 Premier League starts, scoring 23 goals and providing 14 assists. He also bagged his third PL Golden Boot and the Playmaker of the Season award. However, Tottenham Hotspur only managed to finish 7th in the league.

Tottenham Hotspur have a new manager at the helm of the club in the form of Nuno Espirito Santo. The former Wolverhampton Wanderers boss will have a tough decision to make regarding Kane, with reports suggesting that Manchester City are already plotting a move for the forward.
