Many world-class wingers have come and gone from the Premier League over the years. Some have gone on to become some of the very best in Europe, and in world football, whilst others have come up through their respective academies and have made the English top flight their home.
In the modern day era, the talent coming up through the ranks is striking, with some of today’s biggest names still very early on in their careers. Nonetheless, what they have achieved so far, and the moments of magic they have produced, is good enough to see them already in the conversation for being some of the best players to ever lace up and step out onto the field for a Premier League side.
