2. Neymar

According to French source
Le10Sport, Chelsea stepped up their pursuits of Brazilian international Neymar last month with a possible summer deal on the cards. The 21-year old is one of the hottest properties in world football and his astonishing 43 goals in 47 appearances for Santos last season is but one reason why the likes of Chelsea and Barcelona have been chasing the latest sensation from South America. Chelsea are one of only a few clubs who would likely be able to afford the youngster thanks to Roman Abramovich's millions, and the Russian oligarch could be keen to make a "marquee signing" in the summer in order to take some of the weight off the shoulders of misfiring Fernando Torres, who is still without a league goal this year. There are few strikers better than Neymar in world football at present and it looks almost certain that he will be making the move to Europe over the course of the next few seasons.
