Just like Abraham, Jack Grealish played an instrumental role in securing Aston Villa's return to the Premier League. Having been there from the tender age of six, it meant the world to him helping earn their promotion - not least after indecision over his long-term future last summer.

Champions League finalists Tottenham were heavily interested in acquiring the midfielder and reportedly had two bids rejected for his services, as Villa were unwilling to sell their prized asset just days before the deadline and were justified in doing so.

An excellent passer and dribbler, he dictates the tempo of games and is the heartbeat of this current Villa side - where he leads by example as their club captain. He netted six goals and created seven more assists in the division, so will be expected to take the top-flight by storm on his return next term: whether that be at Villa or elsewhere in the league.
