After spending big in the just ended winter transfer window, the teams participating in the English Premier League will be looking to bring in more high profile names to boost their individual teams. Big spenders Chelsea were the highlight of the January transfer window as they splashed 71.5 million pounds on David Luiz and Fernando Torres, with the signing of the latter leading to Liverpool bringing in Andy Caroll for 35million and Luis Suarez for a region around 22 million. Other signings like that of Darren Bent to Aston Villa and Eden Dzeko to Manchester City from Wolfsburg also made headlines but this is all in the past with focus of managers and club owners on the future.
There are a lot of, if not big name players, players considered to be value for on the radar of either big teams , average teams and also teams rising in their standards. With all teams focused on youth development, this raises concerns over the future of existing players and also coaches who are described as dead men walking.
Romelu Lukaku, the 17 year old Belgian International is on the radar of four top-flight teams with Anderlecht demanding a fee of around 18 million pounds. The youngster who is compared to Didier Drogba has a higher chance of joining the Blues than that of any other club interested in him and Manchester City will provide huge competition in order in order to sign the youngster.

He has made headlines in Manchester with both United and City interested. Roman Abramovich recently expressed his interest in the youngster after he rejected an offer from Chelsea at the beginning of the season.
Jack Rodwell, already featuring in the Premier League for Everton is atarget for Manchester United and Chelsea. Sir Alex Ferguson is in the driving seat to sign the young midfielder as a long term replacement for ageing and departing Paul Scholes.
