#1 Dimitar Berbatov

There is a type of signings which elevates the mood around a club and quickly changes the perception of it from being title contenders to title favourites. Dimitar Berbatov now of Kerala Blasters has done just that! The Bulgarian can be said as the most exciting player to watch out for in the upcoming season with his supreme first touches, brilliant close control and expert finishing set to take the ISL by storm.
Berbatov is also the third highest paid player in the league which increases the pressure on him to perform. But the classy striker has always played under pressure throughout his career and will look to be in the scoring charts as soon as the group phase begins. A Manchester United cult figure, Berbatov is also expected to be adored as soon as he sets foot on the field by the football-crazy Kerala supporters.
