It's going to be very interesting to see Ukrainian winger Andriy Yarmolenko in the Premier League after his £17.5m move to West Ham. The 28-year-old had spent his entire career in his homeland with Dynamo Kyiv before a relatively unsuccessful move to Borussia Dortmund last summer.

Yarmolenko only scored three times and made two assists in 18 appearances for Dortmund, but has a much better record throughout the rest of his career. He's one of the top scorers ever in the Ukrainian Premier League, netting 99 times in 228 appearances, and scored over ten goals in seven successive seasons with Kyiv from 2010 through to 2017.

Yarmolenko is also his country's second-highest goalscorer with 35 strikes in 77 caps, and he adds a lot of threat to a West Ham side that should be much more attack-minded and exciting to watch this season under new boss Manuel Pellegrini. Valued at £7m in the fantasy game, the Ukrainian is not the cheapest option but definitely has the quality to justify that price tag.
