Pietro Pellegri is the hottest talent of Italian origin right now. He plays for Ligue 1 side AS Monaco. He debuted for Italian club Genoa at the age of 15 and holds the record for the youngest player to play in the Seria A alongside Amedeo Amadie.

A regular with the Italy U17 & U19 sides, Pellegri has been called up for the Italy Senior team for the upcoming Nation's League in September. Pellegri has by far seemed to be a promising and talented lad, and he might just be enough to break the Italian striker hoodoo that has been persisting for a long time now.

He is definitely one for the future.
