One player every Premier League club should cash in on to strengthen their squad

One player every Premier League club should cash in on to strengthen their squad
In 2013, Tottenham sold Gareth Bale to Real Madrid for a world record fee of 85million.Spurs reluctantly cashed in on their prized possession after months of speculation linking him with a move to the Spanish capital.1. Gareth Bale (Tottenham)21
Real Madrid bought Bale for a club record 85m
And what happened next certainly won’t be music to the ears of the Lilywhites faithful.Daniel Levy replaced the Welshman with a number of average players, if we’re being brutally honest.Roberto Soldado, Vlad Chiriches, Etienne Capoue, Paulinho, Nacer Chadlii and Erik Lamela all made big money moves to north London.One player, however, made it all worth it – and that was Christian Eriksen, who has recently admitted he sees his future away from Spurs.Adrian Durham says it's no surprise Christian Eriksen wants to leave Tottenham In light of this, talkSPORT.com explored which player each Premier League club could cash in on in order to strengthen their squad elsewhere.Have a look at our findings below…

Arsenal – Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

Should Arsenal cash in on Aubameyang
Arsenal striker Aubameyang has been linked with a big-money move to the Chinese Super League.CSL clubs are reportedly ready to pay 300,000-a-week to tempt him to the Far East, and they are said to be optimistic he will agree to the switch.Is it worth cashing in on the Gabon international, Gunners fans?There’s no question you would get handsome fee for the striker and some defensive reinforcements are urgently needed.

Aston Villa – Jack Grealish

Grealish has been linked with a move to Spurs
Grealish recently pledged his long-term future to Villa, signing a new five-year deal in September – and he reiterated his desire to stay with the Birmingham side following their promotion to the Premier League.However, there is no doubting the claret and blue outfit may need to strengthen their team to ensure their safety in the top flight next season.Some added firepower is needed in attack, especially with the possibility of Tammy Abraham returning to Chelsea in the summer – and a permanent deal for Bournemouth defender Tyrone Mings is also yet to be agreed.

Bournemouth – Ryan Fraser

Fraser has been linked to Arsenalgetty21
Fraser has been linked to Arsenal
Bournemouth are so well equipped in attack that it may be worth selling up one of their front-men in order to strengthen their midfield or defence.The Cherries have so many promising attacking players, including Callum Wilson, Josh King, David Brooks, Jordan Ibe, Dominic Solanke and Ryan Fraser? Surely selling one of those stars has to be in consideration.Fraser, as talented as the Scotsman is, could be sold given he has just one-year left on his contract while Arsenal have been strongly linked with a move for the tricky winger.

Brighton – Pascal Gross

Is it time for Brighton to cash in on Gross?21
Is it time for Brighton to cash in on Gross?
Gross is undoubtedly a talented player and that was evident from the superb season he had in the 2017/18 season, where he tallied up seven goals and eight assists.However, he struggled for the same kind of form this season having totted up just three goals and three assists, albeit hampered with injury for a period.Gross is still just 27 years old and could leave for a decent fee – it may well be worth cashing in on the playmaker and make needed improvements elsewhere.

Burnley – Ben Gibson

Gibson has only appeared four times for Burnley21
Gibson has only appeared four times for Burnley
Gibson signed for Burnley for a club record fee of 15million last summer and he astonishingly made just one Premier League appearance for the clarets.The defender has not made an impression on Sean Dyche and Villa are said to be interested in the 26-year-old.It will be difficult to get a big fee for him but he must be sold in the summer in order for the club to strengthen the squad elsewhere.

Chelsea – Alvaro Morata

Morata wants out of Chelsea21
Morata wants out of Chelsea
Eden Hazard is on his way to Real Madrid this summer and Chelsea will eventually recuperate around 150million for the Belgian if certain clauses are met – but who else should the Blues look to sell?Look no further than Morata. The Spaniard showed glimpses of his quality on occasion but he simply isn’t a good fit for west Londoners.He has even admitted he is desperate for his current loan club Atletico Madrid to sign him and Chelsea have a gem in Tammy Abraham in their ranks to turn to next season.

Everton – Cenk Tosun

Tosun has fallen down the pecking order at Goodison ParkGetty Images21
Tosun has fallen down the pecking order at Goodison Park
Tosun has had a miserable time at Goodison Park since his 27million move from Beskitas, having scored just eight goals in 39 league appearances for the Toffees.The Turk had a superb goal record in the Super Lig, scoring almost a goal every other game at his former club.If business is done correctly Everton could recuperate a large chunk of the fee they paid for the striker.

Manchester City – Benjamin Mendy

Mendy has been plagued by injuries yet again this season21
Mendy has been plagued by injuries yet again this season
There is no disputing Mendy’s quality as a full-back, particularly in attack, but his injury problems have become a huge problem for Pep Guardiola.The Frenchman has made just 17 league appearances in two seasons with City and if a club comes in for him Guardiola must be thinking about selling him.

Manchester United – Romelu Lukaku

Lukaku struggled for form under SolskjaerGetty21
Lukaku struggled for form under Solskjaer
Lukaku is seemingly on his way out of Old Trafford after two seasons with the club.The Belgian does not look like being part of Ole Gunnar Solskjaers plans for next season and he has already been linked with a move to Inter Milan, with new San Siro bossAntonio Contea huge admirer of the striker.The Red Devils will certainly pick up a lot of cash for the forward and they must use the money to recruit wisely otherwise it may be another long season for the club.

Newcastle – Sean Longstaff

Longstaff may have convinced United chiefs to make a moveGetty Images21
Longstaff may have convinced United chiefs to make a move
Man United have been linked with Longstaff following his assured performances in the middle of the park for Rafa Benitez’s men.The 21-year-old is being looked at by Solskjaer, with the United boss keen on adding young homegrown players to his squad.Although the Magpies will be desperate to keep hold of their player, the club could be given an offer they can’t refuse.However, if the reported takeover of the club goes through, Newcastle may be looking to keep hold of their valuable assets at all costs.

Leicester – Islam Slimani

Transfer report: Crystal Palace considering January bid for Leicester City striker Islam Slimani21
Slimani will probably be sold in the summer
Slimani is another player who struggled to adapt to the Premier League after moving from Sporting in 2018.He netted eight times in 35 league appearances for the Foxes before he was sent out on loan to Fenerbache for the 2018/19 season.Brendan Rodgers will no doubt be looking to cash in on the 30-year-old and find another suitable replacement for Jamie Vardy.

Liverpool – Dejan Lovren

Lovren could be shipped out in the summer21
Lovren could be shipped out in the summer
Lovren has been displaced in the line-up following the arrival of Virgil van Dijk, who has formed a great partnership with Joel Matip in defence.The Croat is so prone to an error and with another centre-back Joe Gomez waiting in the wings now is the perfect opportunity to cash in on the 29-year-old.There is sure to be some interest in his services if he was to be put on the market.With a starlet like Ki-Jana Hoever around in the academy Lovren won’t be missed if he does leave.

Norwich – Max Aarons

Aarons has starred for Norwich since establishing himself in their starting line-up21
Aarons has starred for Norwich since establishing himself in their starting line-up
Aarons had a superb season for Norwich and was instrumental in his side’s promotion to the Premier League.Unsurprisingly, the full-back’s performances caught the eye of Spurs and he has been linked with a move to north London to replace Kieran Trippier.The Canaries will definitely be recruiting ahead of the their return to the top flight, but should they cash in on Aarons in order to strengthen the rest of the team?

Southampton – Fraser Forster

Forster had a torrid time last seasonGetty21

Forster had a torrid time at Southampton last season, making just one appearances all season before getting displaced by Angus Gunn in the line-up.Gunn looks set to be first choice next season following his imperious performances between the sticks under Ralph Hassenhuttl.Forster should move away to reignite his career and the Saints will surely look to cash in on the stopper.

Sheffield United – Jack O’Connell

Having earned promotion to the Premier League with a number of players Chris Wilder had when the club was in League One, some upgrades will be needed here.Jack O’Connell celebrates scoring for Sheffield United last seasonGetty Images - Getty21
Jack O’Connell celebrates scoring for Sheffield United last season
One man who could be sold to raise extra funds, even if it would be fairly unwise, is defender O’Connell.The ex-England youth international has developed superbly at Bramall Lane having arrived in 2016 and the Blades could get a decent sum or his services.

Tottenham – Christian Eriksen

Eriksen confirmed he wants to leave SpursGetty21
Eriksen confirmed he wants to leave Spurs
Eriksen recently revealed his desire for a ‘new chjallenge’ away from Spurs and it looks increasingly likely he will depart in the summer.Daniel Levy will look to get as much money as possible from the sale of the Dane, who has just one year left on his contract – just like Hazard who has joined Real Madrid for a big fee.And Spurs will then use that to strengthen their squad elsewhere, with a deal for Real Betis’ Lo Celso edging closer.

Crystal Palace – Wilfried Zaha

Zaha is rated at around 80m by Crystal Palace
Zaha, like Eriksen, is another player who seemingly wants a move away from his respective club,The forward has been a standout performer for Palace in recent seasons but has revealed his desire to play in the Champions League.The Eagles will no doubt get a big fee for the Ivory Coast international and it may well be a wise move to invest that money elsewhere in the squad.

Watford – Andre Gray

Gray could depart in the summer21
Gray could depart in the summer
In terms of stats, Gray hasn’t had the worst season in the world having notched up seven goals and two assists in 29 matches.However, he featured mainly off the bench and plays second fiddle to captain Troy Deeny and Gerard Deulofeu most of the time.He is a proven goalscorer and another Premier League club could surely stump up the cash to sign him, perhaps one of the promoted sides.

West Ham – Marko Arnautovic

Anautovic tried to force a move to China in January21
Anautovic tried to force a move to China in January
Arnautovic failed in his attempt to force a way out of West Ham in January and as a result of his actions he lost a lot of support from the Hammers faithful.Inter Milan are said to be keen on the striker as Conte targets a bullish no.9 up front and the London Stadium hierarchy will surely pick up a significant fee for the Austrian.

Wolves – Ivan Cavaleiro

Cavaleiro struggled for game time this season21
Cavaleiro struggled for game time this season
Cavaleiro has struggled for game time ever since Raul Jimenez moved to the club on loan from Benfica at the beginning of the season.The Mexican has since signed permanently for the club and the prospect of first-team action again looks limited for the Portuguese forward.He was a handful for defences in the Championship when Wolves were promoted, scoring nine goals and adding 11 assists in that season, and there will surely be some takers for his signature in the second tier.
