Premier League: five wonderkids set to shine this season 💎 | OneFootball

Ready to shock the Premier League?

On Friday night, the Premier League will be back. As every summer, English clubs have spent big money to secure the services of the most talented and promising players on the planet.

On the eve of this new season, we’ve decided to reveal the five gems who, in our view, are going to break out in the Premier League this season.

Gonzalo Garcia - Fulham - 22 years old

We know it: Gonzalo Garcia has a goalscorer’s instinct that few strikers his age possess. Having joined Fulham for a fee of 40 million euros, the Spanish forward will reunite with Alvaro Arbeloa, his former coach in Madrid.

Another piece of good news for him is that competition in Fulham’s attack is limited. He should therefore get playing time and every opportunity to show the rest of the Premier League his finishing ability.

Luka Vuskovic - Brighton - 19 years old

Nurtured by Tottenham, who had loaned him to Hamburg in the Bundesliga last season, the Croatian defender saw his stock soar after a strong campaign with the German club.

Selected for the World Cup with Croatia, the 19-year-old defender decided to leave Tottenham in order to guarantee himself playing time and continue his development.

Vuskovic therefore joined Brighton this summer in a deal estimated at 54 million euros. It is also the biggest signing in the Seagulls’ history.

Aladji Bamba - Newcastle - 20 years old

In a surprise sale by AS Monaco, Aladji Bamba capitalized on his excellent season to move to Newcastle in a transfer estimated at around 40 million euros.

The defensive midfielder seems to have landed in the right place at the right time, given that the Magpies have just gone through a major midfield overhaul with the departures of Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimaraes.

The 19-year-old Frenchman will therefore face limited competition and could quickly get his chance at a club hoping to return to European competition this season.

Johan Manzambi - Aston Villa - 20 years old

A true sensation of the 2026 World Cup, Johan Manzambi left Freiburg this summer to join Aston Villa.

Currently sidelined with a knee injury, the young Swiss player is eagerly awaited back by Unai Emery, who saw his attacking department lose its main playmaker this summer, namely Morgan Rogers.

Powerful, mobile and technical, the Swiss national team gem seems to have everything it takes to shine in the biggest league of them all.

Max Dowman - Arsenal - 16 years old

He is the new star all Arsenal supporters are waiting for. Already seen in a few Gunners matches at the end of last season, the young winger showed that he has fire in his legs.

After a long season, and in an area of the squad that needs fresh energy, Max Dowman could bring a breath of fresh air to the Gunners’ attack.

To do that, however, he will still need to get ahead of Gabriel Martinelli and new arrival Christos Tzolis.

And you, which player do you see breaking out in the Premier League this season?
