#3 Alvaro Morata (Chelsea to Juventus)

Morata could leave the English top flight this summer

London outfit, Chelsea broke their transfer record when they signed Alvaro Morata from Real Madrid in the summer of 2017.

The striker had a decent start to life at Stamford Bridge, scoring 7 goals in his first 8 matches and making waves in the Premier League. However, everything that happened afterwards was a total nightmare for the attacker.

Morata hit a very poor patch as the season wore on, producing embarrassing displays in front of goal which forced Antonio Conte to drop him on the bench for a couple of important clashes.

The signing of Olivier Giroud in the winter has seen the Spaniard's game time further reduced, therefore giving him a reason to think about his future at Stamford Bridge.

Morata is reportedly considering a move away from the Premier League with a host of Italian clubs including the likes of Juventus, Inter, and AC Milan interested in signing him.

According to Metro, the Bianconneri are currently leading the race to sign the player, who is valued at £50 million by Chelsea. Morata spent 2 years with Juventus during his time in the Serie A and his relationship with the club could make things easier for the Old Ladies.

#2 Paul Pogba (Manchester United to Paris Saint Germain)

Recent spats with Mourinho have made things worse for Pogba at United

After completing a world-record switch from Juventus to Manchester United in the summer of 2016, Paul Pogba's future at the Old Trafford currently looks uncertain.

The midfielder has spent 2 years at the club, winning the UEFA Europa League and the Carling Cup. But recent developments at the club suggest that the Frenchman might be on his way out this summer.

Pogba had some misunderstandings with Jose Mourinho last season, with the manager dropping him for a couple of important games. This has reportedly provoked the 25 year old and he is eyeing a move away from Old Trafford.

According to Daily Mail, French champions Paris Saint Germain are currently exploring the possibilities of luring the midfielder away from the Premier League and recruiting him into their star-studded squad. The Parisians are ready to invest in the France International as they prepare for the next campaign.

Pogba impressed during the recently concluded campaign, bagging an incredible 6 goals and 12 assists for The Red Devils in all competitions.

#1 Christian Eriksen (Tottenham Hotspur to FC Barcelona)

Barca want Eriksen to replace Iniesta

Following the departure of Andres Iniesta, Barcelona are currently in the market looking forward to signing another world-class superstar to strengthen their midfield.

The Catalans have identified Tottenham's Christian Eriksen as a perfect option to replace the Spaniard at the Camp Nou.

Eriksen is a top class player who would perfectly slot into the Barcelona team. His incredible performances for the North London outfit last season qualify him as one of the finest midfielders in the Premier League. He has the intelligence, skill and a style of play that will enable him to succeed at the Camp Nou.

A potential move might be on the cards, with Spanish news outlet, Don Balon recently hinting that Spurs could agree on a deal worth £100 million with Barcelona for the Danish midfielder.
