Who will be the one? Well, take a look at the top 5 impressive young football players at the World Cup in this post. Also, explore how the most famous journalists think about their potential.
Tim Vickery - a famous football journalist, shared about this young talent: “Alvarez is a striker from River Plate, who is going to be joining Manchester City. He moves quickly, but his mind is quicker. I'm interested to see him have more opportunities to play with Messi because you've got to be sharp in order to play with Messi. You've got to be technically good. You've got to be thinking at the same speed as Messi. And I think maybe during the course of the tournament, the combination between Messi and Alvarez could be very interesting indeed."
Raphael Honigstein - the German journalist has spoken about Davies: "Alphonso Davies has been called the Bayern Munich roadrunner by Thomas Muller, which gives you a snapshot of what he does so well. He's incredibly fast. It's almost a cheat code - he allows the defense to play really high up because you know that even if somebody goes through, there's a good chance that Alphonso Davies will catch up with him."
Later, in March 2021, he received his first call-up to the senior team for the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers. He made his World Cup debut on March 25, 2021, in the match against Iceland as a 79th-minute substitute. He scored his first goal on October 11, 2021, in a match against North Macedonia.
"Jamal Musiala is a fantastic player. He runs at players. He loves to dribble, loves to do something that's very unexpected, and is a very different type of player from most of the German national players. Although we (Germany) have been producing better and more creative players in recent years, he still seems to be a cut above everyone else, even at his young age. So I think everyone in Germany is hugely excited that he opted to play for Germany rather than England.” Raphael Honigstein shared his thoughts about Musiala.
"If there was one player I should name that I really look forward to seeing at the World Cup, it's Eduardo Camavinga." Honigstein added, "I love the way he plays. He's a guy that always looks comfortable on the ball. He always seems to have a bit of extra time. And his upright playing style, I think it's just something beautiful to behold. He reminds me a little of a young Franz Beckenbauer. The way he moves through the midfield with the ball. Just a fantastic player. And I think he will be an absolute superstar, no doubt."
Although his appearance in the 2022 World Cup has not been confirmed, football aficionados really appreciate his top-notch performance and yearn for his play in this biggest event of the year. He’s also regarded as the next Pele or Mbappe.
After making his England under-15 debut against Turkey in December 2016, Bellingham led the team in the 2017–2018 season and received a special achievement award at the Birmingham City Academic Award. He advanced to the under-16 team while serving as captain and scoring four goals in seven games. After scoring the third goal in the European Championship qualifying matches against Finland and Austria, he continued to contribute in different ways.
"Jude Bellingham has so much talent that almost anything he does looks good, attractive, and dangerous. He's got vision. He can make runs into the final third as well as score goals. The complete midfielder." Honigstein explained.
