The youngest player on the list, Viktor Kovalenko is a target of many top clubs. Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester United are all interested in signing the player, though Liverpool is set to lead the charge. All three will face a serious battle to secure the £10 million rated playmaker.

The Premier League giants will have to fend off an interested Barcelona side, that could just beat all three to the punch. Placing a bid for the 19-year old playmaker will be key towards the Premier League sides chances.

One of the stars of the 2015 U-20 World Cup, Viktor Kovalenko has failed to reach a contract extension with his club Shakhtar Donetsk. Though his current contract ends at the end of the 2017 season, the higher amounts of foreign interest will make a new deal almost impossible.

Selling now while the side can still recieve top dollar is the best move for the Ukrainian club. Taking advantage of the interest from Barcelona and the three English giants, Shakhtar may be able to recieve top value for their young star.
