Q: Can I know more about these players?
A: Sure.
Kylian Mbappé
The talent of a generation. Mbappé has become one of the world’s very best footballers in what looks like a matter of seconds. By driving PSG to the Ligue 1 trophy in his first season in Paris, Mbappé established himself as a true leader in an emergent new era of football.
Eduardo Camavinga
As the youngest player to ever start for Stade Rennais at just 16, Camavinga’s career has been one that shows a maturity beyond his years. Signing for Real Madrid at 18 just wasn’t enough for Camavinga. He had to go ahead and score a goal on his debut in the Santiago Bernabéu. Born ready for the biggest stages.
Jude Bellingham
Leaving your hometown at 17 to sign for Borussia Dortmund is more than just a sign of ability. It’s a sign of maturity, self-belief and drive. These attributes, combined with his stellar talent, are what make Jude Bellingham a force to be reckoned with. Playing a key role in Dortmund’s DFB-Pokal win last season and scoring a match-saving goal against Stuttgart this year, Bellingham is getting better with each game.
Phil Foden
The Stockport …. Phil Foden. His sharp ascent has only been surprising to those outside Manchester. Mercurial, fleet-footed with a doggedness that makes him as much of a team-player as a maverick. Three Premier League titles at age 21 tells you everything you need to know. Last season was arguably the one that Foden contributed most to, with his stunning volley against Everton last year cementing the emergence of a game-changing talent.
Christian Puliscis
From Pennsylvania to the blue-tinted lights of the Shed End. Christian Pulisic was expected to shine and at 23, having lit up the Bundesliga and the Premier League, he is delivering. After 81 appearances for Borussia Dortmund, Pulisic made his arrival in the Premier League for Chelsea. A hat-trick in his debut season and some stunning performances saw Pulisic grow into a name to worry about. With a UEFA Champions League win in his second season in SW6, the sky is the limit for Christian.
Theo Hernández
In an era where full back is the new rockstar position, staking a claim doesn’t come easy. But Theo’s lung-busting runs, attacking thrust and reading of the game makes him a leading light. AC Milan is a club that has been home to some of the greatest wing backs of all time. Theo hasn’t taken the Rossoneri shirt lightly. His first ever goal for AC Milan was a stoppage time winner. Amazing performances followed and Theo won both AC Milan’s Player of The Year and a spot in Serie A’s Team Of The Year in 2019/20. Levelling up.
A: Sure.
