Strikers
Left Striker: Pietro Pellegri (Genoa)
Age: 16
Trending
League appearances: 9
The youngest player in this XI at 16 years of age, Pietro Pellegri is the latest in the Italian production line of talented strikers to take the Serie A by storm.
His performances have been absolutely stellar and considering the fact that he is only 16, it comes as no surprise that he is already subject to a £10 million (plus add-ons) bid by the Italian champions Juventus if recent reports are to go by.
The youngest ever Serie A debutant and the first 16-year-old to score more than one goal in a major European league game, Pellegri has created waves in the Italian footballing circuit and has been smothered in praise by the Italian media.
Also, the first millennial to score in the Serie A, Pellegri has made 6 appearances in the league already this season, scoring 3 goals in the process.
Right Striker: Kylian Mbappe (Paris Saint-Germain)
Other alternatives: Moise Kean (Hellas Verona, on loan from Juventus), Abel Ruiz (Barcelona B)
Age: 19
League appearances: 58
The most celebrated teenager in the world since a certain Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe was voted the 7th best footballer in the world in the Ballon D'or listings. An incredible feat for a 19-year-old (18 at the time of the list) who is barely 2 full seasons old in European football.
The talk of the footballing world last season, Mbappe took France and Europe by storm and was AS Monaco's attacking spark in a very impressive season that culminated with Monaco ending PSG's monopoly at the top of the French League and progressed to the Semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League.
Breaking multiple records set by a young Thierry Henry at AS Monaco, Kylian Mbappe was unstoppable last season. Unbelievably quick and super sharp on the turn, his creative side was also on show last season as he formed a formidable partnership with Falcao at Monaco.
His stellar first season sparked a transfer frenzy with all European giants willing to splurge cash to get his signature. Finally, PSG got to sign him, making him part of the second most expensive transfer in footballing history and making him the final addition in the new attacking triumvirate which comprises Uruguayan sharpshooter Edinson Cavani and Brazilian magician Neymar.
He has continued his excellent run of form and has shut all the critics who labelled him as a possible 'one-season-wonder'.
Probably the best teenager in the world right now, Kylian Mbappe is certainly the one to finish off the moves for this teenage XI.
