5 under-19 strikers who will one day rule European football

#3 Kylian Mbappe

Arsene Wenger has for the first time ever compared a young striker to Arsenal legend, Thierry Henry

Perhaps the most followed young striker in all of Europe currently, 18-year-old Kylian Mbappe is proving to be sensational for Leonardo Jardim's side given the way he's broken onto the scene in France. Even before he could make his debut for the side, Premier League side Manchester City bid excess of €30 million for him – the clearest of indications how much Europe – and Pep Guardiola – rate him already.

He's quick, he loves dribbling with the ball at his feet and he's someone who could soon follow Anthony Martial's footsteps and make it to British shores in the summer. With only two years left on his current contract, Arsenal, Manchester City and Chelsea are all expected to dangle as much money as possible for the youngster.

It's taken #Mbappe 37 games (1478 mins) to reach 12 #Monaco goals.It took Thierry Henry 51 appearances (2663 mins) to reach that mark.
