Here are five players who have impressed during the 2019/20 season and are set for stardom after the new year and potential big money moves.
1. Todd Cantwell
Not many fans of the beautiful game would have been aware of the Norwich midfielder’s name during the herald of the new season. Cantwell played a sporadic role in Norwich’s promotion to the Premier League during previous season and didn’t really stand out from the rest making just 27 appearances and scoring 1 goal.
However the 21-year-old has since had a remarkable rise. Cantwell established himself as a key member of the Norwich squad and begun his Premier League career on great form. After the first three games of the season Cantwell had already contributed to three goals and matched his tally of goal contributions from last season.
The midfielder plays with real tenacity and sense of nonchalant elegance on the pitch. His darting runs forward, tricky feet and exuberant energy has been a pivotal influence on the way Norwich play. Cantwell’s knack for stepping up in the big games has also been an outstanding asset. The 21-year-old has found the back of the net against Manchester City, Arsenal and Chelsea already this season.
He currently has 14 Premier League games under his belt 4 goals and 2 assists. Having also made his England U21 debut, it will not be surprise if Cantwell is on the move in the summer to a bigger team.
