The Premier League is widely known to be the best league in the world and a lot of that is down to the quality presented there.
Mohamed Salah, Kevin De Bruyne and Cristiano Ronaldo are all here, but who could do better?

Top Premier League clubs are chasing Erling Haaland, while Robert Lewandowski could leave Bayern this summer if he doesn’t sign a new contract.
Here talkSPORT.com takes a look at these two players, along with other players we’d like to see in the English top flight with Tradepoint.
Robert Lewandowski (Bayern Munich)
For several seasons Lewandowski has flirted with a move to England, and with his contract in 2023 he could finally move to the Premier League this summer.
Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool and Man City have all been linked with the striker who even asked Polish team-mate Matty Cash about the split.
“He is fluent in English. He asked me about the Premier League – its intensity,” Cash told talkSPORT.
“But he still knows because everyone knows what the Premier League is.”

Kylian Mbappe (PSG)
Available to sign as a free agent, Mbappe is being courted by all the top clubs in Europe.
The French superstar is expected to leave PSG for a new adventure with a move to Champions League record holders Real Madrid set to go ahead.
That said, he has been linked with Liverpool in the past and has flirted with Reds fans in the past with comments about Klopp’s squad.
“What Liverpool are doing at the moment is amazing,” he said in January 2020. “They’re like a machine, they’ve found a rhythm and are like ‘we’re still playing, we’re still playing’.
“They haven’t lost a game. When you look, you think everything is easy, but it’s not easy. The guys are focused, they play every three days and they win, they win, they win.
“Now the problem is that everyone is looking at Liverpool, and everyone is looking at what we can do against them, so now they have to show they are strong again, but they are a very good team with a very good manager.”

Erling Haaland (Borussia Dortmund)
Since coming onto the scene for Red Bull Salzburg in 2019, Haaland has been nothing short of a freak of nature in front of goal.
Like Mbappe, Haaland is expected to leave the club this summer when his release clause kicks in.
Man City, Chelsea, Man United and Liverpool are all linked with the striker who is also attracting interest from Bundesliga rivals Bayern Munich, Spanish giants Real Madrid and Barcelona, and French champions PSG.

Jude Bellingham (Borussia Dortmund)
Many have wondered why his boyhood club Birmingham City retired his shirt number, No.22, when he left for Dortmund, but since then it’s easy to see why they did.
Even at his age, the 18-year-old is showing fans around the world just how special he is with a series of dazzling displays and scintillating performances from central midfield.
Liverpool have reportedly lined up a £90m bid for Bellingham which is “worth every penny” according to former Aston Villa striker Gabriel Agbonlahor.
“He would be worth every penny,” he told talkSPORT.
“He is 18 years old, he will continue to improve. I’ve watched him a few times, he’s amazing and he’s going to keep improving, especially at Dortmund where he plays every week.
“I think it makes sense that he also goes to Liverpool because you have to keep improving.”

Paulo Dybala (Juventus)
The 28-year-old’s contract is almost over and apparently won’t sign a new contract with the Old Lady.
Considering the quality he possesses having scored 109 goals in 274 for Juve, Dybala would be a great addition and one that would put fans on the edge of their seat.
His versatility is also a big plus given that he is comfortable playing anywhere through the attack.
It would, however, be a bitter pill to swallow for the Serie A giants to lose another big name after losing Cristiano Ronaldo in the 2021 summer transfer window.
Liverpool have been the strongest of all Premier League clubs and would have liked to sign him in this transfer window, but may now be waiting for him to become a free agent.

Dusan Vlahovic (Fiorentina)
Having played in Serie A for the past two seasons, Vlahovic has been widely tipped to take the next step in his career.
The icy finisher has torn defenses apart after scoring 21 goals in 37 games in the 2020/21 season and 16 strikes in 20 games so far this term.
Not only has he found the net regularly, he even equaled Ronaldo’s record of 33 Serie A goals in a calendar year in 2021.
Tottenham, Manchester United and Man City have all been linked with the striker, but in the present day, Arsenal are said to be the favorites to sign the Serb.
Vlahovic is reportedly valued at £70m and the Gunners have already tested the waters by offering £43m plus midfielder, Lucas Torreira.

Jeremy Doku (Stade Rennais)
The Belgian winger produced some sensational performances for his nation at Euro 2020 which has reportedly led to Liverpool stepping up their interest in Doku.
The 19-year-old has started twice in the competition and provided an assist in Belgium’s quarter-final loss to Italy.
His potential has been noticed for some time now and speaking to Ouest France, Doku revealed that Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea tried to sign him in 2018.
“I was going to be 16 and that was the age at which you can sign a pro contract. A lot of teams came to see me,” the Stade Rennais star said.
“Everyone talks about Liverpool because that was the most concrete interest but there was also Arsenal and Chelsea.
“I was able to chat with Jurgen [Klopp], [Sadio] Mane, [Georginio] Wijnaldum… [Steven] Gerard too. I spoke a lot with Mane but we didn’t really talk about football. We talked about everything.
“He told me that I was young, that I still had time… he wasn’t trying to convince me or tell me ‘come here, you will succeed'”.
