Ross Barkley (Everton)
Ross Barkley’s recent goal against Newcastle United indicated his immense potential. The 20 year-old England international received the ball from FC Barcelona loanee Gerard Deulofeu just outside his own penalty area, and promptly ran the length of the pitch to score a wonderful solo effort.
Barkley has a powerful physique, is a fine passer who plays with his head up, and is one of the most promising English attacking midfielders to have emerged in recent years.
Given that Everton are unlikely to be able to afford the large transfer fee required to sign Romelu Lukaku on a permanent deal without UEFA Champions League football, the future of the Belgian forward could prove crucial in any deal for Barkley.
