Kylian Mbappe, 19 and already a World Cup winner with France is a name unknown to none.

Elsewhere, Jadon Sancho is tearing apart the Bundesliga. Borussia Dortmund is benefitting from his services whom they had signed the previous summer. Big clubs all around Europe are interested in signing the Dortmund star for a £100m move in the coming summer according to The Mirror.
Because of their excellent form, all these young players are well known.
Let us have a look at some more players who seem to have gone under the radar.
#5 Nicolo Barella
21-year-old Italian Nicolo Barella has caught the eye of many Premier League clubs with his impressive performances in the Serie A since last season.
He is a dynamic midfielder who likes to take charge of the game. The Gazzetta dello Sport once regarded him 'The Sardinian Steven Gerrard' and fittingly so, his long-range diagonal pass is one of his admired attributes. Although, he lacks the goal-scoring prowess of the former Liverpool skipper.6 goals with a single assist in 34 league appearances last season can only ever be improved.
The top clubs all around Europe recognise his industrious work rate. He possesses incredible stamina. Cagliari fans, unsurprisingly, appreciate his relentless pursuit of possession.
#4 Noussair Mazraoui
20-year-old Dutch-born Moroccan, Mazraoui plays as a right-back for Ajax. Noussair Mazraoui scored a stunning goal against mighty Bayern Munich and was thus rewarded for an outstanding start to the season.
His consistent performances have quickly gained him fans from the Ajax faithful. Mazraoui likes to play a quick one-two with his teammates, possessing an incredible passing talent. His dribbling skills and interceptions are one of his best attributes.
There are questions over his ball retention ability and crossing, but they can only improve with time.
#3 Aaron Wan-Bissaka
Aaron Wan-Bissaka has been in splendid form for the Eagles since last season. The 20-year-old right back has been cherished by the ardent South London fans.
A member of the Crystal Palace academy since the age of 11, Wan-Bissaka has now become one of the first names to appear in the playing eleven. A superb defensive talent blended with his sterling passing ability makes him an exciting player to watch.
Selhurst Park certainly has an exciting prospect on their hands with the sky being the limit for the young defender.
#2 Jonathan Bamba
The 22-year-old French striker, Jonathan Bamba has helped Lille to a strong start to the season. Currently, Lille is second in Ligue 1 much to the surprise of the whole of France.
7 goals and an assist in 9 games have made Bamba an instant fan-favourite among the Lille supporters. He loves to involve his teammates in the game too.
Bamba has an unbelievable vision and, his passing ability is also worth mentioning. Three braces at the start of the season but still the stats suggest that his finishing is a weakness.
#1 Luka Jovic
20-year-old Serb Luka Jovic is wrecking havoc in the Bundesliga. Eintracht Frankfurt will be eager to permanently sign the striker, who is on loan from Benfica. A five-goal thrilling performance against Fortuna Dusseldorf has now moved him to top of the goalscoring charts in Europe.
12 goals in 7 games are astonishing numbers. His team play attitude has earned him many accolades. He also possesses the skill and the maturity to lay off the ball for teammates.
The no. 8 is forming a formidable strike partnership with Croatian Ante Rebic. A truly complete striker. Exciting times for the German club who now have the leading goalscorer in all European leagues.
