Ansu Fati

Ansu Fati had been destined for greatness from an early age, and having spurned both Real Madrid and Sevilla (who offered him more money) during his formative years to join Barcelona, Ansu Fati is on the verge of living the dream.

He has absolutely wowed everyone with his performances for the Barcelona youth sides and scored 59 goals from just 29 matches for Barcelona's Juvenil A side to finish as the league's top scorer.

Fati is widely regarded as the hottest prospect in the highly-rated La Masia, and he saw his promotion to the first team (he is yet to represent Barcelona B) fast-tracked as a result of the injuries suffered in attack.

He was 16 years, 11 months and five days when he stepped onto the field to replace the aforementioned Carles Perez with 12 minutes remaining, making him the second-youngest player to represent Barca in La Liga history.

Expectedly, he trended worldwide, with many including none other than Lionel Messi impressed with his performance, and with Messi, Suarez and Dembele still out with injuries, Fati could yet get more opportunities to create more records.
