#5 Will Hughes (Watford)

While Wan-Bissaka is someone who’s emerged from almost nowhere, Hughes is a man who has been talked about for a long time. The English midfielder was highly-rated while at Derby, with regular reports linking him with a move to one of the Premier League’s big six. His later years at Derby were sadly hampered by injury, which perhaps robbed him of that move to a big club.
He made the move to Watford in 2017, but once again saw appearances in his first season limited by injuries. He has however been a constant in the Watford side at the start of this season and has played a big part in their successful start to the campaign. He will have been disappointed to not be included in Gareth Southgate’s England squad yet, but he can’t be too far away.
