3. Demba Ba

West Ham United to Newcastle United - Free

Demba Ba moved to England after signing for West Ham in January amid reports he had a chronic knee disorder that could end his career instantly.

He went on to score 7 goals in 12 appearances although he couldn't prevent West Ham from relegation.

The Senegal striker decided to activate a relegation release clause in his contract and left to join Newcastle on a free transfer in the summer.

He took a few games to find his feet but scored a hat trick against Blackburn and has since taken his goal tally to 8 in 10 games so far this season.
