#3 Malang Sarr – OGC Nice
Trending
Much has been spoken about of OGC Nice's rise to the top of the Ligue 1 table this season. Yes, they have an experienced forward line and a midfield capable of competing with the better teams in France but the fact that they've put up with such an onslaught of matches with an 18-year-old at the back is saying something else entirely.
A Nice man through and through, Malang Sarr has been a rock and the kind of base Lucien Favre's side needed to ensure they could compete with the big boys in the league. An excellent passer of the ball who possesses an accuracy of 88.7%, he's had the kind of season that could very well catch the attention of a lot of clubs.
Real Madrid have reportedly sent scouts to monitor him on a week-to-week basis meaning he's no flash in the pan. Sarr is dominant defender despite his tender age. With experience and the right kind of mentor, he'll grow to become a truly monumental player for both France and his club.
