5. Daniel Jebbison
One of the most exciting names in this list. An England under-20 international, he was once the youngest player in EPL history to score on his first start. He's also won the UEFA European Under-19 Championship in 2022. A low-risk, high-reward option, Jebbison would be a great signing for both teams after departing Sheffield United. | Getty Images Photo: Getty Images
6. Tyrese Campbell
While he struggled for goals and regular game time at Stoke last season, the 24-year-old has already shown he knows where the net is after scoring nine goals in the 22/23 EFL Championship season. He's at a great age and has plenty room to grow. Would be an exciting addition to either Old Firm side. | Getty Images Photo: Getty Images
7. Scott Hogan
There's no doubting the 32-year-old endured a torrid campaign last year scoring just one league as his Birmingham City side were relegated to League One. That said, he reached double figures in both the 21/22 and 22/23 seasons for the Blues. Could a fresh start see him back amongst the goals? | Getty Images Photo: Getty Images
8. Shola Shoretire
Another highly-rated Manchester United youngster set to depart the club this month, Shoretire scored seven goals in nine Premier League 2 games last year and has featured for the Red Devils first team a handful of times. An England youth international, the club are attempting to agree a new deal with the player though several reports claim he will reject any contract in search of first team football.
