#2 Jordan Sancho (19 years old)

At just 19 years old Jordan Sancho is the youngest player on this list, but despite that he is showing the maturity of a footballer a lot older than his real age.

An interesting aspect of Jordan Sancho is that he is a rare example of a player who represents the England National team, whilst also playing in Bundesliga.

Not often have many of the England internationals played outside of the Premier League in recent years, especially not the Bundesliga.

To put it into context, Sancho is the only player in the current England squad who is playing outside of the Premier League.

Although this doesn't determine his talent alone, it is still an interesting thing to consider about the young player.

It can be argued that it shows the forward's great character as he is willing to move to a new country to play football, despite being a teenager.

However, the main reason he is on this list is due to his performances in the Bundesliga, where he has shown his prowess as an explosive, tricky forward who can score and provide.

Ad

The latter is greatly evidenced by the fact that he is the top assist maker in the top 5 leagues this season, ahead of both Messi and Ronaldo.

He is showing great skill in maturity, which is why he has been included in the recent England squads, and with time it seems that he will only get better.
