Arsenal star Ozil predicts more Turkish players to join Premier League: Five potential candidates

2. Salih Uçan

Salih Uçan joined Roma as one of the future stars of European football. The official UEFA website gave Salih a glowing report for his Europa League exploits: “Uçan figured in all but one of the Turkish team’s knockout games, netting a crucial goal as they overcame FC Viktoria Plzeň in the round of 16. Still a teenager and boasting enviable vision, he looks set to become a fixture in the Fenerbahçe midfield for years to come.” Fenerbahçe reached the semi-finals of the 2013 Europa League and a season later the Turkish international was snapped up by Roma. Due to a succession of injuries Uçan failed to make much of an impact last season but Roma boss Rudi Garcia has hinted that the 21-year-old is in his plans next season after starting him in both International Championship Cup games.
