Thibaut Courtois – Chelsea
Only an exceptional goalkeeper could be capable of replacing Blues icon Petr Cech in between the posts at Stamford Bridge, and the Belgium international has cemented himself as one of the finest stoppers in Europe after becoming Jose Mourinho’s new no.1.
With three superb seasons at Atletico Madrid prior to his debut 2014-15 campaign in the Chelsea first-team, the 23-year-old already has a wealth of experience at the highest level. So much so that Real Madrid reportedly offered €100m (£73m) for his signature [via HLN].
