18. Ben Chilwell

The 19-year old left-back rejected Liverpool this summer to sign a new 5-year contract with Leicester City. The Leicester academy product made his first team debut last year in the English League Cup.

He then joined Huddersfield Town in the Championship on a two-month loan. Chilwell also featured twice in the FA Cup but found opportunities limited due to Christian Fuchs’ presence.

He is yet to make his Premier League debut, but has featured once this season, in the League Cup defeat to Chelsea. With plenty of time on his side, Chilwell can become a regular for the Premier League Champions for years to come. He has great pace, and likes to get forward. He is a great crosser of the ball, and is also defensively solid.

Chilwell has also featured for the England U-18s, U-19s, U-20s and U-21s. And if he can continue his rise, a future left back role for the senior England side beckons for Ben Chilwell.
