Gravenberch’s impressive displays for Liverpool have caught the eye of fans and pundits alike.

Anthony Elanga (Nottm Forest)

The former Man Utd forward made 36 appearances last season while bagging five goals and nine assists for The Tricky Trees. Elanga’s performances didn’t go unnoticed and Newcastle United pushed hard to sign him this summer. He has the potential to develop into a top-class attacker and could be tempted to make a big move in 2025.
