Ten Young Players You Will Hear About Next Season

Every season a new name comes out of nowhere. Here are the ones you should know before they blow up.

Lamine Yamal. Barcelona. Still a teenager. Already looks like he belongs. The comps to Messi are unfair but you can see why people make them.

Warren Zaire Emery. PSG. Plays like a veteran. Reads the game at a level most players do not reach until their mid twenties. He is going to be special.

Alejandro Garnacho. Manchester United. Raw but fearless. Direct, takes defenders on, makes things happen. Consistency is the next step.

Jude Bellingham does not count anymore. He is already there.

The rest are names you will hear about soon: Joao Neves at Benfica, Mathys Tel at Bayern, Rico Lewis at City, and a kid in Brazil whose name you cannot pronounce yet but you will learn it.

Watch their games while you still can. They will not be available for long.
