Top 50 Best Young Players In World Football

15. Wilfried Zaha (Manchester United)

Manchester United were determined to beat Arsenal to the signing of 20-year-old Wilfried Zaha after his impressive displays in the Championship with Crystal Palace. The forward will join up with the Red Devils next season, and is currently being loaned back to Palace in a bid to help their push for promotion. Could be the latest young talent to make a name for himself at Old Trafford.

14. Cristian Tello (Barcelona)

Liverpool, Tottenham and Arsenal are all keen on signing this talented Barca youngster, who would be a regular if not for some fierce competition ahead of him at the Nou Camp. The 21-year-old has a big future in the game, showing great dribbling and finishing skills from wide positions.

13. James Rodriguez (Porto)

This Colombian talent has been compared with Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo for his ability as a goalscoring winger. Currently at Porto, he has been watched by Manchester United and other top clubs, and looks destined to be a world class performer in the next few years.

12. Kevin De Bruyne (Chelsea)

The young Belgian is unlucky not to be valued by Chelsea, after a great season on loan at Werder Bremen. Despite his 8 goals and 9 assists, the 21-year-old attacking midfielder will probably be sold by the Blues this summer, with Borussia Dortmund keen on signing him to replace Mario Goetze – which shows how highly they rate him.

11. Iker Muniain (Athletic Bilbao)

Dubbed ‘the Spanish Messi’, Iker Muniain is not short of admirers for his silky displays for La Liga side Athletic Bilbao. The 20-year-old has already been called up for the Spanish national team and been watched by Arsenal and Manchester City. At 5 foot 7, he is a tricky customer, usually playing on the wing for Bilbao.
