#4 Ben Gibson
Middlesbrough's vice-captain, Ben Gibson is one of the two players on this list to have prior Premier League experience.
Middlesbrough academy graduate, Ben Gibson made his debut in 2010 but established himself in the first-team scenario only in the 2013-2014 season after his loan spells at Plymouth Argyle, York City, and Tranmere Rovers. Middlesbrough narrowly missed the promotion in the 2014-2015 season after losing to Norwich City in the play-off finals before eventually getting promoted in the 2015-2016.
Although Middlesbrough relegated back to the Championship just after one season, Ben Gibson performed really well and received his first national call-up for a World Cup qualifier match.
With the number of top-flight clubs looking for a good center-back, it won't be surprising to see Ben Gibson playing in the Premier League next season.
