External factors, though, curtailed any progress into United&#8217;s first-team and he&#8217;d ultimately join West Ham before undergoing a series of loan spells that ended with a transfer to Lazio and more temporary stays elsewhere. Just when it seemed he was settled at Swedish outfit \u00d6stersunds, the Mancunian midfielder joined Sheffield United but has rarely featured in Chris Wilder&#8217;s impressive outfit. To date, he&#8217;s made four appearances in all competitions including a 12-minute Premier League cameo against Leicester City last August and now finds himself on loan at Middlesbrough.

Pep Guardiola, who knows a thing or two about promoting from within, is now giving plenty of minutes to the likes of Phil Foden but someone who&#8217;s quickly being forgotten is ex-Fulham youngster, Patrick Roberts, whom many touted for big things. He enjoyed a successful loan spell at Celtic a while back, however, it&#8217;s been hopping from one club to another following that brief period of success.

His time in Germany, though, was a tad disappointing having made 26 total appearances before returning to England and joining West Brom. But even this move hasn&#8217;t been a success for the Scotland international. Burke, who only turned 23 in April, would leave for Celtic on loan and last summer moved to Deportivo Alav\u00e9s, where he&#8217;s only started seven La Liga games to date.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>4.
