Odsonne Edouard
One of Glasgow Celtic’s most infamous players of the past decade is Odsonne Edouard and he shows no sign of slowing down his career anytime soon. At only 23 years old, he was signed by Paris Saint-Germain back in 2011 and loaned to Celtic in 2017 for one season. He impressed the team and Celtic fans and he soon became one of Celtic’s most prospective players. After making a good impression and helping Celtic win another league title, he permanently signed with the club in 2018. Edouard remained the top goal scorer in the 2019-20 Scottish Premiership and is only expected to do great things for Celtic in 2021. With Edouard’s skill and determination, he is certainly one to watch for this year and beyond.
Jacob Murphy
Jacob Kai Murphy is currently playing for Newcastle United as a winger. Despite being a young footballer, he has a very impressive club portfolio and international career. Due to Murphy being a top goal scorer, he consistently brings new opportunities for the scouse club. For example, Newcastle United have been lucky to partner with one of the top casino sites in the United Kingdom, Mansion Casino; this wouldn’t have been possible without Newcastle’s talented players. Murphy signed for the club in 2017 and told the media that it was his dream to play for the club. His dream certainly came true and remains a star to look out for in 2021.
Nathan Ake
For some time, there has been talk of Arsenal grasping all opportunity with 2021’s summer transfer window. In 2020, fans and football experts thought the team would swipe Nathan Ake up in a heartbeat. Currently, he plays for Manchester City as a centre back and at times, a left back. Ake has been consistently impressing fans and prospective clubs over the years making him a top pick for the transfer window. He made his Premier League debut at the young age of 17 in 2012 and it was only upwards from there.
Harry Kane
Harry Kane remains one of the United Kingdom’s top football players of the decade. At the moment, he is a striker for Tottenham Hotspur and fulfils his role as captain for England’s national football team. For both 2015-16 and 2016-17 seasons, Kane became Hotspur’s top goal scorer and helped the club become very close to reaching the top spot in the UEFA Champions League. By the time 2020 rolled around, he became the club’s second-highest goal scorer of all time in official competitions. He extended his talent to England’s national team too, scoring 33 goals in 52 games. His performance in the 2020-21 season is going well and his skills do not disappoint.
