A week ago, we posted an article on the players to watch during the Euros. Most of us will watch it from home, some booked Euro 2024 tickets to watch some matches live in Germany. All of us need to enjoy the football, but we advice to pay some special attention to these three extremely talented youngsters. Take in mind we haven’t got Florian Wirtz in this list, because we already put him in the players to watch category.

Lamine Yamal is widely regarded as one of the most promising young talents in world football. Making his debut for Barcelona at just 15 years old, he quickly broke into the limelight by becoming the youngest goalscorer in La Liga history at 16 years and 87 days. His record-breaking doesn't stop there; Yamal also set a new mark as the youngest player and scorer for the Spanish national team.

As Spain gears up for the Euros, all eyes will be on Yamal. If Spain advances deep into the tournament, the young forward will celebrate his 17th birthday just a day before the final. With his remarkable pace, dribbling ability, and keen sense for goal, Yamal could be a game-changer for Spain.

Arda Güler - Turkey

Age: 19

Arda Güler, often dubbed the "Turkish Messi," is another young prodigy making waves in European football. At 19, Güler has already made history as the youngest goalscorer for the Turkish national team. His exceptional talent caught the attention of major clubs, leading to his signing with Real Madrid, despite interest from Arsenal, Bayern Munich, and Paris Saint-Germain.

Güler is known for his versatility, capable of playing in various attacking roles. His close control, dribbling skills, and vision make him a formidable presence in the midfield. As Turkey looks to make an impact at the Euros, Güler's creativity and technical prowess will be crucial to their success.

Xavi Simons - Netherlands

Age: 21

Position: Midfielder

Xavi Simons, at 21, already boasts an impressive resume, having played for PSG and Barcelona. A product of Barcelona's famed La Masia academy, Simons has been highly regarded for his skills and versatility, capable of playing as an attacking midfielder or on either wing.

During his time at La Masia, Simons established himself as one of the club's top young prospects. He has represented the Netherlands at various youth levels, scoring consistently, though he has yet to find the net for the senior team. The Euros present a golden opportunity for Simons to solidify his place in the national team and potentially be the catalyst for Dutch success.
