1. Kylian Mbappé

The Paris Saint-Germain youngster is one of the best forwards in the world. He is quick, agile and is an aerial threat. Mbappé is also a very dangerous finisher, and a brilliant dribbler. He has adjusted to the ‘star life’ pretty quickly, after moving from Monaco.

PSG are yet to sign him permanently, but they will shell out €180 million to close deal at the end of the season. At Monaco, he was a prolific scorer, scoring 16 goals in 41 appearances in 2 seasons.

He has continued his form at PSG. In 32 appearances at the Parc de Princes, he has scored 15 goals and provided 11 assists. But the 19-year old is yet to break into the Ronaldo-Messi category.

But he is equivalent in terms of talent, to his teammate Neymar and Chelsea star Eden Hazard. But within a couple of seasons, Mbappé will join the big leagues by realising his huge potential.
