2) Eliaquim Mangala
One of Europe’s most sought after and highly rated young talents, Eliaquim Mangala has been building himself somewhat of a reputation in recent times.
Plying his trade in Portugal for Porto, Mangala has been in sparkling form over the past two seasons and has firmly established himself as one of the world’s most promising players.
His most outstanding attributes are his physical ones, standing at a sizeable 6?2, Mangala possesses the pace and athleticism of a top striker rather than a centre back.
His size and presence make him a force to be reckoned with on the pitch. Despite being only 22, Mangala has approaching 150 professional games to his name (both for Standard Liege and Porto), and has made his debut for the French national team. A truly impressive prospect, rumour has it that Manchester City and United are locked in a tussle to land his signature in the summer.
Red Devils fans must hope that he joins the red half of Manchester, because Mangala could really be a force to be reckoned with in the Premier League.
