Christopher Nkunku
Club: RB Leipzig
Country: France
Age: 21

Leipzig’s new signing is a driver. No, we’re not talking Lewis Hamilton. We’re talking a box-to-box midfield motor on the ball!

Position: Keeper
Yeah, Manuel Neuer is great, but trust us when we say there is life after him – Fruchtl is 6ft 4in and their homegrown hero!

Dominik Szoboszlai

The big clubs have been circling and it’s no surprise –midfield dynamo Dom could be Hungary’s best player since ledge goalscorer Ferenc Puskás!

Ibrahima Konaté
Club: RB Leipzig
Country: France
Age: 20
Position: Centre-back
Leipzig think so much of Konaté, they offered him a new long-term deal last season – and he signed. He’s a tactically switched-on centre-back like VVD!

Carles Alena
Club: Barcelona
Country: Spain
Age: 21
Position: Midfielder
Learning his trade at Barca’s famous La Masia academy, Alena is the Catalan giants’ next-best thing, so much so that they slapped a £75m release clause on his name!

Federico Chiesa

Age: 21
Position: Forward
Feds is one of the first names on Fiorentina’s team sheets these days – he played 34 games last season, scoring six and grabbing three assists. A decent start for a youngster!
