#10 Justin Kluivert
Age: 18
Club: Ajax
Position: Right-wing
Nationality: Dutch
The 18-year-old has pressure on his shoulders concerning the legacy of his legendary father. But, Patrick Kluivert can sit back relaxed regarding his son's future in the game.
Justin Kluivert made his debut with Jong Ajax in September 2016 and later made it to the first team in the same year. He is yet to make a senior team debut for the Netherlands.
The Dutchman is well adept at getting the fans on their toes, thanks to his silky stepovers and dribbling skills. Kluivert plays as a right forward, also capable of functioning as an attacking midfielder. With plenty of room for improvement, he is rightly destined to be a future superstar in the game.
While Ajax have a Herculean task in keeping Justin Kluivert away from the prying eyes of giant clubs, another vital question needs to be addressed. Will Justin make his father proud in the coming years?
