#7 Leroy Sane (Manchester City, 22)

Manchester City v Bristol City - Carabao Cup Semi-Final: First Leg — The future of German football

Barely 22 years of age, he is touted as the next big thing in German football. Sane has been in stellar form for Manchester City this season since joining them in 2016 from German outfit Schalke FC.

He is one of the major reasons why Guardiola's City have been unstoppable in their onslaught of opponents as Manchester City race towards their 3rd Premier League title since 2010. 12 assists and 11 goals say a lot about his abilities, and he is getting better with every game.

If he keeps up his level of performance, it won't be long before we see him at the top.
