#2 Ruben Neves
Football fans across the globe were surprised when Portuguese international Ruben Neves joined the Championship club Wolverhampton Wanderers in 2017.
Since his move to the Wolves, Ruben Neves has been in brilliant form and is playing an important part in the club's push for the EFL Championship title this season. He has scored four goals so far this campaign and will be one of the top contenders for the EFL Championship Player of the Season award.
Regarded as the golden boy of Portuguese football, Ruben Neves is a defensive midfielder possessing good tackling and passing skills. He is Porto's youngest league goalscorer and is the youngest player ever to start a Champions League game as a captain.
Reportedly, Manchester United have been linked with the player and will try to lure him away when the transfer window re-opens in summer.
