Diego Costa (Chelsea)
Striker Diego Costa has been one of the most expensive signings to be made this summer, having joined Chelsea from La Liga champions Atletico Madrid for a fee of £32m.
Despite a disappointing World Cup campaign for Spain, Costa was perhaps the most decisive player in La Liga last season and will be expected to finally put the Blues’ troublesome centre forward position to bed.
Lazar Markovic (Liverpool)
Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers has begun on the unenviable task of replacing Barcelona-bound superstar Luis Suarez, after signing Benfica winger Lazar Markovic for a fee of around £20m.
The Serbian international is rated as one of the most exciting young wingers on the planet and will be hoping to continue his stunning rise to prominence after only leaving Partizan Belgrade twelve months ago.
