FIFA World Cup 2018: Best XI of players making their world cup debut

Left Winger - Kylian Mbappe (France)

Mbappe is the youngest member of France's squad

With numerous attacking options at their disposal, 19-year-old Kylian Mbappe might find it difficult getting sufficient playing time. But then, it's Mbappe we are talking about, the teenager whom PSG is likely to buy for €180 million this summer.

Labelled as the next 'Ronaldo Nazario', Mbappe shocked the world by scoring over 20 goals for Monaco last season.

And he proved he was no one-season wonder, by repeating the feat during his loan spell in Paris. 2018 FIFA World Cup can turn out to be a great learning experience for the young Frenchman.

Striker - Harry Kane (England)

Harry Kane will be captaining England in this World Cup

Over the last few decades, England has had the honour of being represented by a host of great strikers at the world cup.

These include names like Gary Lineker, Alan Shearer, Michael Owens and Wayne Rooney. This time, it will be Tottenham Hotspurs' Harry Kane leading their attack.

Harry Kane has been ranked among the best strikers in the world for quite some time now. In 2017, he even outscored Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, with 56 goals.

His phenomenal goalscoring display has given a new lease of life to English supporters. Can Kane end up doing the unthinkable for the Three Lions? Let's wait and watch.

Right Winger - Mohamed Salah (Egypt)

Mohamed Salah is currently in the form of his life.

The 2017-18 season has been nothing short of a fairytale for Mohamed Salah. When was the last time a player scored over 40 goals in his debut season at a new club! Salah's talismanic form has carried Liverpool to their first UEFA Champions League final in 10 years.

And not just his club, he has been sensational for Egypt as well. The African nation would be making its first world cup appearance since 1990, courtesy five goals from Salah during the qualification process.

Egypt faces an uphill task ahead, considering they haven't won a single game in the world cup before. But with Mo Salah in their side, nothing seems impossible.
