Position: RW, ST
Age: 27
Club: Liverpool
Country: Egypt
Wage: £216,000 a week
'Egyptian King' Mohamed Salah is one of the hottest properties in world football at the moment. Once dubbed a 'one season wonder', Salah is now in his third season for Liverpool and is still at the top of his game.

Virgil van Dijk (OVR 90 - POT 91)
Position: CB
Age: 27
Club: Liverpool
Country: Netherlands
Wage: £180,000 a week
PFA Player of the Season Virgil van Dijk will remain the best centre back in world football for the foreseeable future.

N'golo Kante (OVR 89 - POT 90)
Position: CDM, CM
Age: 28
Club: Chelsea
Country: France

You may be able to get one or two seasons out of him before his physical ability completely deteriorates. We advise you sign him for a one or two-year contract at the most.
Sergio Busquets (OVR 89 - POT 89)
Position: CDM, CM
Age: 30
Club: Barcelona
Country: Spain
Wage: £270,000 a week
Sergio Busquets is Barca's second-longest serving player in the squad behind Lionel Messi.
The Spaniard has his contract until 2023 meaning he will have completed a 15-year term for the Catalonian giants. Despite being up for contract expiry, he is likely to retire in Barcelona but attempting to bring a player of his calibre in to your team is worth the try.
Sadio Mane (OVR 88 - POT 88)
Position: LW, LM
Age: 27
Club: Liverpool
Country: Senegal
Wage: £198,000 a week
The Champions League winner has just under four years left on his contract. A move away from Merseyside in 2023 is very possible for the Senegalese attacker could be persuaded to join your club.
His pace, dribbling and shooting should remain intact and should continue to be one of the best attackers in the Premier League.
Raheem Sterling (OVR 88 - POT 90)
Position: RW, LW
Age: 24
Club: Manchester City
Country: England
Wage: £230,00 a week
Raheem Sterling was a crucial part of Pep Guardiola's record-breaking title-winning season. He is the youngest player on this list and has his prime years still to come.

If you are in a position to approach to sign him, make sure you offer him much higher wages and a 5-year deal. Otherwise, it is almost certain he will look somewhere else. His pace and general skill set aren't going to get worse any time soon so grab him when you can.
Marco Reus (OVR 88 - POT 88)
Position: CAM, LM, ST
Age: 30
Club: Borussia Dortmund
Country: Germany
Wage: £153,000 a week
Marco Reus is sure to go down in history at the Signal Iduna Park. Now the Borussia Dortmund captain, he is just one of three players who stayed at Die Schwarzgelben after winning back-to-back Bundesliga titles in 2011-12.
His contract expires in 2023 where he will be 33 years of age. At this point his physical ability and skill woud've fallen off by now. His core stats such as shooting and passing will remain but unfortunately he will not be the player he used to be.
Toni Kroos (OVR 88 - POT 88)
Position: CM
Age: 29
Club: Real Madrid
Country: Germany
Wage: £297,000 a week
Toni Kroos, unlike some players on this list, will remain a quality player after the end of their contract. The German doesn't rely on physical stats to get him through games. He orchestrates a match at his own pace and this will not change as he gets older.
