Another Paris Saint Germain superstar on this list, France's World Cup-winning attacker, Kylian Mbappe is also one of the few players that could upset the odds and beat Barcelona maestro Lionel Messi to the European Golden Shoe this season.

Apart from being the most impressive attacking youngster in Europe at the moment, the former Monaco ace is also one of the fiercest finishers on the continent right now - thanks to his electrifying performances for both club and country during the year.

After helping his nation to claim the prestigious FIFA World Cup trophy in Russia recently as well as bagging an amazing 4 goals to his name in the process, the 19-year-old has resumed club football in fantastic form. He has scored a whopping 9 goals and provided 3 assists for the Parisians in 6 Ligue 1 appearances so far and he has also emerged as one of the top contenders to win the European Golden Shoe this season.
