The European Under-21 Championships kicked off in Poland on Friday as England played out a goalless draw with the reigning champions Sweden.

While there wasn’t too much to shout about for the Three Lions after a toothless display, Everton fans would have been happy to see their new £30m signing Jordan Pickford save a late penalty to give his side a share of the points.

Pickford isn’t the only player at the tournament attracting attention from Premier League clubs as a whole host of wonder kids will be looking to impress suitors while guiding their side to glory.

A number of Premier League clubs will have been keeping tabs on the players on show for years and will be intrigued to see how the talented youngsters handle themselves on the pitch.

Here are five players we’ve picked out who Premier League clubs will particularly be keeping their eye on...

Federico Bernardeschi

The first man on our list will be one of great interest to Chelsea and Manchester United fans.

Fiorentina winger Federico Bernadeschi has been an outstanding performer in Serie A this season, bagging 11 goals and four assists in 27 starts for the Florence outfit.

Tuttosport have reported that both the Blues and Red Devils are vying for the 23-year-old’s signature, while Juventus and Inter Milan are also apparently interested.

The tricky winger’s dribbling ability and penchant for a killer ball will be very important for the Italians, who are one of the favourites to lift the trophy.

Max Meyer

Another talented midfielder, Max Meyer has already got his tournament off to the best start possible.

The 21-year-old scored Germany's opening goal of the tournament in a comfortable 2-0 win over the Czech Republic.

Meyer recently put both Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool on red alert after he confirmed he would not be signing a new contract extension with Schalke 04, as per ESPN.

The agile playmaker has already made over 150 appearances with the club but is available on a free transfer next summer.

Sandro Ramirez

Everton fans won't just be excited to see Jordan Pickford in action this summer as another signing of theirs will be hoping to have an impact on the other side of the pitch.

Sandro Ramirez has already signed for the Toffees according to the Daily Mail - and for the bargain price of just £5.2million.

Ronald Koeman will be hoping he can make a mockery of that price tag as the Malaga striker managed 14 league goals last term.

A Barcelona graduate, Sandro will be hoping his smart finishing and ability to shoot from range can replace the void that would be left by Romelu Lukaku's impending departure.

Tammy Abraham

Coming off the back of a 23-goal season in the Championship, it's no wonder Tammy Abraham's name has been linked with a number of Premier League sides.

The 19-year-old, who starred for Bristol City last season, is currently a Chelsea player but will most likely have his options limited at Stamford Bridge this term.

A loan move therefore seems likely, with Newcastle United and Brighton and Hove Albion the most likely destinations according to the London Evening Standard.

The striker's ability to score a host of different goals could prove incredibly important as the newly-promoted sides look to stay in the division.

Gianluigi Donnarumma

Considered by many to be one of the brightest prospects in world football, it's no surprise to see Gianluigi Donnarumma on this list.

Despite just being 18, Donnarumma started every game for Italian giants AC Milan last season and is seen as the natural heir to Gianluigi Buffon's jersey.

Last week, the Italian stopper set Europe's top clubs on alert as he confirmed he would not be staying at his boyhood club.

Real Madrid, Juventus and Paris Saint Germain have been heavily linked, but Manchester United have also been strongly linked should they need a replacement for David De Gea.
