Young players / prospects I got stocks in and see potential for growth.
Will rate them based on where I think they COULD rank in the world positionally.
Erling Braut Haaland

A rare dying breed of a 9 based on pace and power with a golden boot in front of goal. So good, any team could make him work. Already pumping crazy numbers and the sky is the limit.

Potential: T5 itw consistently, t1 in his position. The very TOP.
Kylian Mbappe

Already considered one of the world’s best. Pacey, good on the ball, and a versatile forward who can play along the front three.

Recent form is worrying some (myself included) with fears of an early peak, but to assume that would be harsh.

Potential: T2 itw.
Federico Chiesa

Aggressive, willing to take anyone on with the ball, and is a great decision maker. Pair that with a good eye for goal, you got a very effective winger to come. Not at the top yet, but don’t be surprised if you see him there soon.

Potential: T5 winger
Rodrygo Goes

Efficient. Effective. Versatile player who can play along the entire front line, with massive potential on either the wing or as a CF. Quick, good decision making, and a natural finisher in front of goal. Has the final product.

Potential: T5-7 winger, T10 CF
Marcus Rashford

Cristiano Ronaldo at United lite. Best way to describe him. Not to disrespect Ronaldo, but simply as praise to rashford. Fast, good on the ball, end product (most of the time) a good role model on top of that.

Potential: T5 winger
Federico Valverde

Best described by saying he has virtually NO weaknesses. Fast, aggressive, good on the ball, great passing range, can defend, and even finish when given the chance. Could be the future of Madrid’s midfield.

Potential: T5 Midfielder
Matthias De Ligt

A warrior and seemingly wise man at his young age. A CB wet dream. Good on the ball, good at commanding a back line, good defender, good leader.

Potential: T1 CB
Edouarde Cammavinga

A very interesting player. Firstly seemed as a solid Dm who can play with the ball, and has slowly grown into a beast CM that can do everything, including finish. 18 YEARS OLD. If Madrid have wanted you since 16....

Potential: T3 CM/CDM
Alphonso Davies

My fellow countrymen, bias or not, LOVE THIS MAN. Pacey, good on the ball, defending is getting better and he’s a great creator as a wingback. Already a Bayern starter so...

Potential: t2 LB
Dominik Szoboszlai

An exciting player in a dying position. He takes the 10 role on in an interesting and exciting manner. Carries the ball so graciously and quickly while always able to find that 10 esque threaded ball.

Potential t3 cam (not many) t5 SS, T10 8 (maybe)
Bukayo Saka

Modelling the Bale position transformation to a tee. Strong, pacey, good on the ball and learning to attack really well. High potential. Mature for his age.

Potential: tough to call dependant on position but t10-12 in either position being LB or winter
Mason Greenwood

Left foot like RVP. Don’t let him cut in, don’t give him space to take you on. Don’t listen to united fans who are telling you he’s going to challenge for balon d’ors, but they are saying that for a reason, he’s good.

Potential: T10-12 RW/ inside fwd
Phil Foden

Honestly hated him when he was coming on to the scene 2 years ago, but he’s matured and showed some serious quality since. Great on the ball and has an eye for a pass. Needs to ditch the support your local haircut tho.

Potential: T10-12 as an 8.5
Joao Felix

Silky on the ball, will take anyone on and beat them, a good finisher, good in linkup, good at finding half spaces.. what more could you want? The sky is the limit, one of my favourites for sure.

Potential: T3 CF, T3 SS, T10 winger (depends where he ends up)
Takefusa Kubo

Not getting the recognition he deserves because of poor loan locations, kubo is the real deal. Already one of the best itw on the ball, quick, and good at finding a pass. He will shock you.

Potential: T3-5 as a 10, T5 as a RW.

He’s gonna shock the world.
Martin Odgaard

Made headlines when Madrid bought him at 16, and there’s a reason they did it. Amazing on the ball, good at recognizing spaces to exploit, and has one of the best finals passes itw already. He’s back at Madrid and it’s time show sow the world.

Potential: T2 8.5
BONUS: some players I see potential in / have stocks in that I can’t openly admit or don’t want to fully commit to yet:

Dembele
Dest
Pedri
Tonali
Chekri
Reyna
Mckennie
