The 2017/18 season was really an interesting one. Full of entertainment, magic and brilliant moments, the campaign served as an opportunity for many fantastic superstars to showcase their incredible talents to the world.

It also featured a lot of transfer activities, with many top players switching from one club to another for mouth-watering figures. These superstars also contributed in making the campaign a memorable one as they fought hard and produced excellent displays to satisfy the expectations before them.

While we had many players who worked hard to produce performances that matched up with their price tags, we also witnessed another category of superstars who impressed while just being on loan. In fact, the season produced some loanees that definitely stood out with their impressive displays.

Therefore, let's look at 3 top superstars who were incredible while serving on loan the last term:

#3 Michy Batshuayi

Batshuayi had a brilliant start to life in the Bundesliga

Chelsea signed an amazing player when they successfully lured Michy Batshuayi from Marseille in the summer of 2016. However, the attacker could not satisfy the expectations at the Stamford Bridge, recording just 2 goals and 1 assist for The Blues in 12 Premier League appearances. Therefore, he was loaned to Borussia Dortmund during the winter transfer window.

It was in the Bundesliga that the striker finally reached his peak. Batshuayi had a wonderful start to his career in Germany, bagging an impressive 2 goals and 1 assist in his debut match. He continued with that incredible form, bagging a fantastic brace in his second game for the BVB. The former Chelsea man could only get better as time went on, quickly winning the hearts of the fans with his scintillating displays.

The Belgian finished the campaign with 9 goals and 1 assist in 14 appearances for his new club, helping the German outfit to finish fourth on the Bundesliga table.

#2 James Rodriguez

The Colombian proved himself to the world once again

Following his amazing achievements in the 2014 FIFA World Cup tournament, James Rodriguez earned a famous transfer to Real Madrid in the summer of 2014. The attacker had a promising start to his career at the Santiago Bernabeu, putting up a couple of brilliant displays in the Spanish capital.

However, after his first season at the club, things started falling apart for the Colombian superstar who struggled to get game time. Therefore, he decided to join Bayern Munich on loan in search of opportunities. That move came out all good for the 26-year-old who seized the privilege to prove his quality to the world.

James was very brilliant during the campaign. He bagged an impressive 8 goals and 13 assists for the Bavarians in all competition. He also played influential roles as the club won the Bundesliga title once again.

#1 Kylian Mbappe

Mbappe was scoring freely during the campaign

French prodigy, Kylian Mbappe was one of the few superstars that dominated the headlines during the summer of 2017. After leading Monaco to success in the previous season, the attacker secured a massive loan deal to join French champions, Paris Saint Germain.

The 19-year-old quickly established himself at the Parc Des Princes, joining Neymar and Cavani to form a fearsome attacking trio that took Europe by storm. Tearing opposition defences apart, creating clear-cut chances and scoring fantastic goals, the attacker was really impressive during the season.

Mbappe bagged an amazing 13 goals and 8 assists in the Ligue 1, while in the Champions League he recorded 4 goals and 3 assists to his name. He also bagged 4 goals and 2 assists in the coupe de France, helping the Parisians to complete a domestic double during the campaign.
