In a training session you can stand at the end line asking the player to look up to tell you how many fingers you are holding up which you change two or three times. You could also use different coloured cones

Let players run towards you, then indicate with your arm the direction they have to turn to (left go left, right go right, 2 arms up run directoon trainer).  It learns them to scan the field in front of them, to the left and to the right.  Keep enough distance between yourself and the player(s) so they have to look further.
