#4 Borja Baston – Swansea City
No one scores like Baston, no one flails like Baston, no one costs so much money than sinks like Baston. After a fabulous season for Eibar in Spain, many expected the Spaniard to even compete for a starting place at his then-parent club Atletico Madrid.
Swansea City then promptly made him their record signing, with the Spaniard joining for a £15m fee, which again had those who saw him in La Liga praising the Welsh club’s move. That smugness quickly faded after one goal in 20 appearances, with the 24-year-old completing 90 minutes just once, showed just how difficult it can be to move to another league.
With a knack for being caught offside, being caught on the ball or being caught running around in circles, it’s just good for the Swans that they had another Spaniard to score the goals to keep them safe this season. And if reports are to be believed, no one will leave like Baston in this transfer window either.
