#2. Kylian Mbappe
Kylian Mbappe has had an eventful 2018 as he lifted the FIFA World Cup with France this summer, and also saw his loan move from AS Monaco to Paris Saint Germain become permanent. The 19 year youngster has established himself as one of the best players around, with more room of improvement considering his age and potential.
Mbappe was important to France's success, and he put in memorable performances against Argentina and Croatia. Building on international success, Mbappe started the season with real motivation and has been amazing so far. Having scored 11 goals in Ligue 1, he is in contention for the Golden Boot award. Mbappe has even set up 3 goals for his teammates.
Mbappe's skill set, pace, vision, and dribbling abilities are just an asset to PSG and playing alongside the likes of Neymar Jr and Edi Cavani only makes him better. Mbappe is definitely the present and the future.
