The Bayern Munich midfielder, aged just 21, has been a pivotal figure for both his club and country. Despite a disappointing season with the Bavarians, Musiala showcased his talent in Germany’s 5-1 thrashing of Scotland, scoring and putting in a brilliant all-round display.
Florian Wirtz (Germany) @ 6/1
The 21-year-old Bayer Leverkusen attacking midfielder has been instrumental in his team’s Bundesliga and DFB Pokal triumphs. Wirtz scored in Germany’s opener against Scotland and will be hoping to secure a spot in the starting XI alongside Musiala.
Lamine Yamal (Spain) @ 6/1
At just 16 years old, the Barcelona winger has already made history as the youngest player and scorer for Spain. Yamal’s impressive performances, including an assist in the 7-1 victory over Georgia, have earned him a spot among the favorites.
Eduardo Camavinga (France) @ 16/1
