4. Isco (Malaga)
This Malaga maestro is one of the hottest properties in world football and has already been linked with a number of the top clubs in Europe in the past couple of transfer windows. The youngster starred in Malaga's unexpected run to the quarter finals of the Champions League last season, only losing to eventual finalists Borrusia Dortmund by the odd goal in arguably the tie of the round. Manchester United was the club
most heavily linked with him in the past couple of windows as a replacement for Paul Scholes. Developments across the road in Eastlands however might throw a spanner in United's plans. Malaga's highly rated coach of last season, Manuel Pellegrini has taken the reins at Uniteds "noisy neighbours", Manchester City. Could they now be in pole position ahead of the champions, in the race for the Malaga players signature? Watch this space.
