#3 Hakim Ziyech
The Moroccan wizard was famously bashed by Dutch football legend Marco Van Basten in 2016 when the former chose to represent the country of his roots over the Netherlands. Fast-forward to 2018, the chokers extraordinaire lived up to their name by losing out to France and Sweden for a spot in Russia. However, Morocco did the unthinkable by qualifying for their fifth World Cup.
The Ajax attacker had a big impact in their qualification as he was involved in over 70% of Morocco's goals. Possessing breathtaking dribbling and passing abilities, we have all become admirers of his creative guile. Having little to no support on the attacking forefront, the encumbrance is on Ziyech to provide the spark that Morocco desperately needs.
With the likes of Mehdi Benatia, Achraf Hakimi, and Amine Harit by his side, the £20 million man (valued by transfermarkt.com) must grab the bull by its horns and make it count. A possible move to an elite club may just be on the horizon post-tournament for this talented player.
