9. Kalvin Philips

Manchester City midfielder Kalvin Phillips looks set to join newly promoted Ipswich Town this summer.

8. Anthony Elanga

Former Manchester United and now Nottingham Forest winger Antony Elagna is thought to be a target for ambitious Newcastle United. At odds of as much as 8/1, the youngster would provide dynamism in wider areas having already shown flair on the run and an eye for goal whilst at The City Ground. 

7. Jack Grealish

Once a fan favorite, Jack Grealish has seen his playing time decimated by Pep Guardiola over the last twelve months and his career at Manchester City now seems to be coming to an end. Bookmakers are offering odds of 15/8 that the Englishman will soon make his return to boyhood club Aston Villa before the end of the month.

6. Manuel Locatelli

Juventus midfielder Manuel Locatelli has emerged as a transfer target for Tottenham Hotspur. With odds of around 20/1 amongst some bookmakers, the Italian could arrive in the Premier League before the end of August, adding a touch of calm and class to proceedings at White Hart Lane this coming season. 

5. Mikel Merino

Real Sociedad midfielder Mikel Merino rose to recent prominence following his World Cup goalscoring exploits against Germany. The Spaniard is odds on in some markets to join Arsenal with The Gunners boss eager to strengthen further and finally snatch the Premier League title away from favourites Manchester City. 

4. Alexander Isak

Alexander Isak has already shown his immense quality in the Premier League, featuring upfront for Newcastle United and having scored 35 goals across his two full seasons so far. Bookmakers are at odds of 7/1 that the Swedish forward will soon be heading for Stamford Bridge before the end of the window.

3. Evan Ferguson

Brighton’s promising young forward Evan Ferguson could potentially head to Manchester United this summer. With odds of 6/1 across numerous bookmakers, the Irish international is likely being pursued by several other Premier League sides and European clubs. Ferguson is highly sought after following an accomplished and eye-catching campaign with The Seagulls last season. 

2. Rodrygo

Real Madrid’s Rodrygo is rumored to be a target for Premier League Champions Manchester City. At odds of around 6/1, the young Brazilian is already a serial winner and would bring guaranteed quality in attacking areas and make the Citizens an even greater threat to the European game.

1. Victor Osimhen

One of the brightest attacking talents on the continent, Victor Osimhen is a Serie A winner and has established himself as a proven elite forward. The Blues would gladly welcome the Nigerian into the Boehly revolution. Bookmakers are at odds of 5/1 that Osimhen will become a Chelsea player before the end of the month and for a rumored fee in excess of £100 million!
