5 youngsters who will tear 2017/2018 a new one

Moise Kean is destined for the top

This season, we were introduced to some incredible youngsters coming through the ranks of various European clubs. The likes of Nady Keita, Amadou Diawara and Kylian Mbappe have caught the world's attention for some of their incredible performances in both domestic and European tournaments. 

And with many football clubs slowly losing out on the ability to fight for talent due to the rising economy of the sport, they're pouring all their efforts in ensuring they're able to produce incredible talent through their youth academies. 

So, here's looking at five young players who will shine under the spotlight in the 2017/2018 season: 

#1 Moise Kean – Juventus

17-year-old Italian striker Moise Kean has been gathering quite the fan base albeit not so brashly as Kylian Mbappe. Kean is still registered with the Juventus Under 19s and has been given the chance to play for the first team in two Serie A games this season. 

Massimiliano Allegri didn't necessarily have to call upon Kean to the first team often given the plethora of options he's got up top – including Argentine duo Gonzalo Higuain and Paulo Dybala. Yet, he remains a fan and is ensuring Kean takes his time to establish himself onto the scene. 

A pure threat with his pace, finishing and turn, the 17-year-old is earmarked for success. He's got a level head, has been flourishing for the youth team scoring 11 goals in 21 appearances and he knows his time will come irrespective of which club he plays for – knowing that he's signed on with Mino Raiola as his manager.
