Top 10 Bundesliga Talents: Mario Götze and 9 Others Ready for a Transfer

The current crop of talent in the Bundesliga is regarded by many as one of the most promising and exciting groups of talent in Europe.

The Bundesliga is improving as a whole, with more talent spread across the league.  

Typically not noted for their technical abilities, the German clubs have shown an emphasis on positive, free flowing and attacking playing styles. These 10 players showcase the type of talent that is becoming associated with the Bundesliga.

Here are the top 10 players lighting up the Bundesliga, and who will likely be on their way to bigger clubs this summer.

Mario Götze 19, Borussia Dortmund

Regarded as the current best young talent in Germany, Mario Götze has pace combined with close control dribbling, and excellent vision. 

It is only a matter of time before a top European club moves for the young German. For only £16 million, Götze comes at a rather reasonable price.

Possible Destinations: Manchester United, Arsenal

Mats Hummels 22, Borussia Dortmund

Bayern München must be kicking themselves on this one.  

After a successful loan spell with Borussia Dortmund, Mats Hummels signed permanently with Dortmund.

Hummels is currently a part of one of the most promising young defensive duos that also consists of defender Neven Subotić.

Currently, a clause in Hummels could see the German leave the Ruhr club for as little as €8 million next summer, if he does not move on this summer.

Possible Destinations: Barcelona, Arsenal

Elijero Elia 24, Hamburg

Elijero Elia is a very similar player to Arjen Robben. Like Robben, Elia relies on his quick bursts of speed, ball control, and dribbling ability.

Elia is a player who is always looking for the killer pass and works well in tight, crowded spaces.

Rumored to be currently valued in the £13 million region, it is believed that England is the player's preferred destination.

Possible Destinations: Liverpool

Marco Reus 22, Borussia Mönchengladbach

A deadly finisher, and a lethal shot, Marco Reus scored against all of the top five teams in the Bundesliga this last term.

Reus brings excellent pace, flair, and set piece marksmanship to his side. 

At only 22 years old, Reus also demonstrates the ability to raise his game to the next level in big matches. It was Reus' strike for Borussia Mönchengladbach that secured his team's survival in the Bundesliga this past May. 

At only €8 million, clubs will surely be inquiring about the services of the German dynamo.

Possible Destinations: Manchester United, Bayern München

Arturo Vidal 24, Bayer Leverkusen

One of the most consistent and sought after midfielders, Arturo Vidal has been a mainstay for Bayer Leverkusen since 2007.

Vidal started out as a defense-minded player, but has since developed into a full fledged attacking midfielder.

A very versatile player, Vidal is a solid defender, and a very capable attacker. Vidal is a true box-to-box midfielder and provides his team with an extra dimension on defense and a spark going forward.

Rated at £15 million, Vidal's versatility is worth every cent.

Possible Destination: AC Milan, Arsenal

Papiss Demba Cisse 26, SC Freiburg

A true rags to riches story, Papiss Demba Cisse got his start playing on the streets of Senegal. A string of impressive performances in Ligue 2 in France saw Freiburg spend a club record £1.3 million.

The 2010-11 season saw Cisse score the most goals in a season by an African in the Bundesliga, and the most goals scored in SC Freiburg colors, 24 in all competitions.

Cisse's memorable season was capped by the distinction of being the most efficient striker in the Bundesliga. The EFFIFU measures a striker's decisiveness, and most valuable goals for a team.

Cisse's £13 million price tag will surely not stop a host of clubs circling the red-hot Senegalese striker.

Possible Destinations: Blackburn Rovers, Arsenal

Lukas Podolski 26, FC Köln

Having failed to live up to the same form for club that Lukas Podolski has shown for country, Podolski remains a dangerous attacker in the Bundesliga.

Podolski is as dangerous out wide as he is up top, and has a deadly left foot. Podolski relies on his speed and confidence to run at players and set up chances.

A host of clubs queued up to secure the German international's services prior to his move to FC Köln. Those same clubs will certainly be inquiring about the availability of Podolski.

Possible Destinations: AC Milan, AS Roma

Marko Marin 21, Werder Bremen

Marko Marin is yet another player dubbed as the "new, new, new, new, new, Messi."  Small like Messi, quick like Messi, and deadly like Messi, Marin still has to develop his game before the similarities continue.

Marin is loaded with potential, and the guidance of a great manager can help Marin develop his game.

Although Marin suffers from the same tendency that many young wingers possess, the potential is there for him to become a real talent. Turning step-overs into passes, and shots into crosses would see Marin become worthy of the tag of the "new, new, new, new, new, new, Messi."

Rumored to be currently valued at £16.5 million, and seeming to be unsettled at Bremen, clubs will surely be pulling out the checkbooks to sign the young German.

Possible Destinations: Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool

Kyriakos Papadopoulos 19, Schalke 04

Take away the two games against Manchester United, and Kyriakos Papadopoulos is a real talent.

Papadopoulos is a very enthused, and energized young defender. Often times his stamina and composure cancel out his age and inexperience.

A very strong defender, Papadopoulos plays hard but clean. Great in the air and surprisingly pacey, Papadopoulos is shaping up to have a really bright future.

Possible Destinations: Liverpool

Shinji Kagawa 22, Borussia Dortmund

Despite missing the second half of the season due to a a foot injury, Shinji Kagawa managed to scored eight goals in 17 appearances for Borussia Dortmund.

At 5'7", Kagawa draws comparisons to Lionel Messi not only for his height, but also his playing style. He is comfortable with the ball at his feet, and is an orchestrator of the attack. Kagawa likes to hold the ball, and pull defenders in before releasing one of his teammates through.

After securing his services for only £295,000 from Cerezo Osaka, Borussia Dortmund will generate pure profit when they decided to part ways with their talented Japanese playmaker.

Slapping a £20 million fee on the diminutive midfield maestro will do little in deterring Europe's top clubs from circling.

Possible Destinations: Manchester United, Barcelona
