12. Duncan Watmore (Sunderland)
The 20-year-old is likely to get a first-team chance at the Stadium of Light this season if the likes of Danny Graham, Steven Fletcher and Connor Wickham continue to find goals so hard to come by.
11. Reece Oxford (West Ham United)
New manager Slaven Bilic has already identified Oxford as one for the future, making him West Ham’s youngest ever player in their match against FC Lusitans in the Europa League first qualifying round.
10. Ryan Ledson (Everton)
Captain England’s Under-17s to victory in the 2014 UEFA European Championship and made his Toffees debut in the Europa League last term. Is at the right club and under the right manager to prosper.
9. Oliver Shenton (Stoke City)
Made his first-team debut against Manchester City in February, two days after attending the funeral of his mother, who he lost to cancer. An emotional start to hopefully a long and successful career.
