1. Shinji Kagawa

Shinji Kagawa has had a terrific campaign in the German Bundesliga this season for giants, Borussia Dortmund. After beginning his career in his hometown of Japan for Cerezo Osaka, scoring an impressive 55 goals in 125 appearances for the club, the attacking midfielder would soon be scouted by Dortmund and signed by the German side. Kagawa, 23, not only boasts an impressive goal ratio of 21 goals in 49 games for the club since signing but has shown signs of what some call 'the Japanese Lionel Messi' and when you're being compared to the best footballer on the planet, than only good things can follow. And Kagawa now finds himself being lined up for a move to the Premier League, with Manchester United showing interest in his signature and according to recent BBC Sport reports, Kagawa is close to sealing a £12 million move to the Red Devils. Has Sir Alex once again done the business and signed the next Messi?
