Last season, Dan James (Swansea to Man Utd), Neal Maupay (Brentford to Brighton) and Jarrod Bowen (Hull to West Ham) were just a few of the players who made an impact in the Premier League seasons after arriving from the Championship. This year, four more high-profile, second-tier players made their move to England's top league.
