#3 Christopher Nkunku (RB Leipzig)
Christopher Nkunku graduated from the youth academy at Paris Saint-Germain. Despite winning a number of trophies with the French club, he struggled to get regular game-time with them from 2015 to 2019.

As a result, Nkunku decided to leave and join RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga in the summer of 2019. Since then, he has been a regular figure at the German club. In the past year, he has grown into one of the most dynamic forwards in the league.
The Frenchman has the ability to create, draw fouls and score goals while playing as an attacking or wide midfielder. In his 25 appearances across all competitions this season, he has already scored 15 goals and recorded seven assists.
With many European clubs keeping an eye on him, it is likely that Christopher Nkunku might be playing for a different club next summer.
#2 Bernardo Silva (Manchester City)
It was rumored in the 2021-22 summer transfer window that Bernardo Silva was tempted to move away from Manchester City citing game time. Fortunately, no move materialized and the Portuguese stayed at City.
Bernardo Silva has always been an integral part of the club and there were never any doubts about the talent he possessed. The Portuguese midfielder has certainly proven his value this season with some wonderful performances on the pitch. He has made some amazing runs with the ball, beating players and scoring goals for fun.
Playing in a midfield of three, Silva has shown tremendous work-rate and tenacity to win the ball back. He has been immense for Manchester City and has been their savior more often than not this season. The Portuguese has seven Premier League goals to his name in the current campaign.
#1 Antonio Rudiger (Chelsea)
Antonio Rudiger initially struggled after arriving at Chelsea in the summer of 2019. The German defender was often deemed to be rash and reckless with his approach.
Since the arrival of Thomas Tuchel in 2021, the German centre-back has looked like a very different player. Antonio Rudiger now looks more confident and solid with his approach. His reading of the game has improved drastically and so has his tackling.
Rudiger's frequent forward run with the ball has been a delight to watch and has helped Chelsea to great effect. It comes as no surprise that the German has been linked with some of the top European clubs given his stellar performances for the Blues this season. His contract with Chelsea ends in the summer. It seems likely that he will leave the Blues in January or the summer as a free agent.
