Erik Lamela – Tottenham Hotspur
Attacking midfielder Lamela scored 15 goals and provided five assists in 33 Serie A games in the 2012-13 season for Roma.
That impressive campaign convinced Spurs to spend around £25m to bring him to White Hart Lane last August.
Lamela, 22, was never really fit during his first term in England and, as a result, he struggled his way through nine Premier League games and six Europa League outings.
He has been prematurely and wrongly written off as an expensive flop.
With a good pre-season under his belt and with the backing of fellow Argentine Mauricio Pochettino, the six-time international could light up the Premier League in the coming season.
