Bayer Leverkusen have made quite a strong impression in the Bundesliga this season.

The Rhineland giants, who were involved in a relegation scrap last season have once again redeemed themselves this campaign and are currently fourth in the Bundesliga table.

One of the main reasons behind their impressive form is the remarkable performances of their younger players.

While Jonathan Tah has managed to keep things in tip-top shape at the back, the attacking duo of Leon Bailey and Julian Brandt stand among the list of top attackers in the Bundesliga this season.

Furthermore, Kai Havertz has also made a huge impression this season, often putting up consistent performances in the centre of the park.

However, it's definitely Leon Bailey who has caught the most attention this season. Following a difficult start to his Bundesliga at the backend of last season, the Jamaican has come out all guns blazing, scoring six goals and providing four assists.

All of these aforementioned youngsters have the potential to emerge as huge talents in the coming years and therefore, it will be interesting to see if they can help Leverkusen challenge the top three in the Rückrunde.
