4. Angelo Henriquez
Parent Club: Manchester United
Loaned to: Real Zaragoza
The second Chilean to feature in this list, the talented forward began his career at Universidad de Chile and his rights were subsequently bought by the Manchester giants in 2009 for a hefty fee of €4 million. The player has impressed one and all at the club and has featured for the U-21 side.
He also secured his first major piece of silverware in the form of an FA Cup, as an unused substitute while on loan at Wigan. He scored a goal for Wigan in his eight major appearances for the club. After returning to Manchester United, he scored for them in a friendly this summer and impressed in pre-season.
Now on loan at Real Zaragoza, one can expect a lot from the forward, who notched up an impressive tally of 15 goals in 28 games for Universidad de Chile.
3. Scott Sinclair
Parent Club: Manchester City
Loaned to: West Bromwich Albion
What should be said about Scott Sinclair’s career? The 24-year-old has been a journey man of sorts, having begun his career at Bristol Rovers and then moving on to bigger fish like Chelsea, only to have spent the next three years of his life on loan at Plymouth Argyle, Queens Park Rangers, Charlton Athletic, Crystal Palace, Birmingham City and Wigan Athletic.
He finally secured a move away from his nomadic existence at the West London Club when he moved to Swansea City in 2010. The move proved to be a master stroke, as with regular first team football, he flourished into a dangerous winger. But in 2012, after a stellar year with Swansea, he decided to move on to reigning champions Manchester City, and that’s when things went downhill again for the young Englishman as first team opportunities came few and far between.
The loan deal at West Bromwich Albion is vital for him now; his career virtually hinges on it. The first team appearances he makes there under the tutelage of Steve Clarke should benefit him immensely.
