5 best teenagers playing outside the Top 6 in the Premier League

#1 Ryan Sessegnon

One of the most exciting prospects in English football.

Arguably the best teenage player in the league, Ryan Sessegnon is the twin brother of England U17 World Cup winning star Steven Sessegnon and joined the Fulham academy at the age of 8 before signing his first professional contract at the age of 17.

It seems a bewildering fact that the 18-year old already has 105 first team appearances at Craven Cottage, with 91 of them coming in the league matches. The young Sessegnon made his debut aged 16 years and 81 days against Leyton Orient in an EFL match and became the first player born in the 2000s to score a goal in any tier of the English league when he scored against Cardiff City.

Wanted by nearly everyone in Europe, Sessegnon was a crucial figure in Fulham successful promotion campaign last year as the young winger/fullback scored 15 goals in 46 appearances for the Cottagers, becoming the EFL Young Player of the season, EFL Championship Player of the season and was included in the EFL team of the season.

The youngster also became the first player outside the Premier League to be nominated for the PFA Young Player of the season award last year. The 18-year old is a technically gifted player blessed with an immense pace that can leave you catching for air.

His versatility helps him to deployed either as a winger or a full back, drawing comparisons with Gareth Bale, and is equally quick with and without the ball at his feet. His shotmaking is very mature for his age and accuracy is another bright aspect and was even once touted to be a bigger prospect than Kylian Mbappe.
