Youth is the greatest of treasures, so they say. And they’re not wrong. Just ask the teams of LaLiga Santander, in which players of barely 20 years of age have shone bright this season. Talent, quality, and maturity beyond their years are some of the fundamental qualities of the competition's young stars.

As revelations go, no-one fits the bill better than Ansu Fati. The young gem aged just 17 has broken into Spanish football in style. His sheer gall out on the pitch, his character, ambition and his superlative quality, along with the wavelength he shares with players like Messi have been instrumental to his standing out as one of FC Barcelona's top players. Add to that his scintillating numbers: he has played over 1,000 minutes, netting seven goals and one assist in 24 appearances, starting in 11 of them.

He is not, however, the only youngster to stand out at the Catalan club. Riqui Puig has also sparkled in the LaLiga Santander run-in. Quique Setien placed his trust in him after the lockdown and he has carved out a place for himself in the starting XI. With a return of two assists in 11 games, it looks like he will be one of the first names on the team sheet in the future.

Barça are not the only side to have seen their youngsters take the step up. Valencia's Ferran Torres is another who has dazzled us. The speed and vision of the fledgeling winger have made him one of the best players in the squad this season. Four goals and five assists are a testament to the great year that he has had.

Not far away from Valencia, at Villarreal, there is another standout performer. Samu Chukwueze, the 21-year-old winger has played a key role for the Castellon-based outfit. His power, character and ambition have made him a veritable nightmare for his opponents, with five assists and three goals.

In San Sebastian, they are adept at squeezing the best out of their players, and examples include Alexander Isak, Mikel Oyazabal, Adnan Januzaj and Martin Odegaard. The Norwegian player has been quite the sensation in LaLiga Santander. At the tender age of 21, his maturity out on the field of play has surprised all of the fans. A lynchpin in the midfield, his commitment and talent have had quite the impact.

Two young stars have made the grade at Real Madrid: Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo Goes. The two Brazilians have dazzled Zinedine Zidane and the Real Madrid faithful. With over 1,000 minutes played apiece, slowly but surely they have been forcing their way into the French manager's side. And let us not forget the crucial goals which they have scored, including Vinicius's strike against Barcelona.

I've been literally screaming this since. I watched Osimhen in the U-17 World Cup and Belgium Pro League last season, and I can confidently say that he is the most talented and endowed number 9 we have at the moment. He has Ighalo's strength and Onuachu's height to an extent, he is faster than both of them and more slippery. He can take on two to three defenders at a time and is too versatile to be caged the way Ighalo is. The guy had 20 goals in an average Chaleroi side and was their player of the season. Plus, Seedorf won't expect it and the last minute inclusion may shatter Cameroon's game plan. I just hope Rohr has the balls to try this out.

Look where he is nowO:-)

You still haven't owned up to your other lie; "the Eredivise is the highest scoring league in Europe"where is the data to back up that claim? Abi u pulled it out of your anus?

I'm not watching any yeye championship game..
There is no quality there that we haven't seen before.
The championship has money than some league in Europe,big deal, but it is still filled with crappy teams..
Premier league clubs with all their money can't claim to have a strong dominance of European football,but somehow you think the Eredivise that has won 16 major European honour isnt better than the championship because you wanted to prove that Chidera Ejuke didn't have a better season than Ebere Eze grin

This komekn is really something else

How can someone say that the championship is better than the eredivise

He made the stupid decision of rushing to join them before the commencement of the WC. I really don't like his style though. He hugs onto the ball too much, he looses it in dangerous places and the team suffers, most recent were the goals we conceded against Ukraine.

Don’t mind etebo

All in the name of I want to play in England because his brothers are there ,he didn’t even care if it’s a second division

Dude was so happy to join stoke because he is being paid 25k weekly or so

Is that not Samuel Chukwueze's name i'm seeing on this article. Damn bullsh*t, this article must have been written by a nairalander from this thread. Because one of our noble "self acclaimed" positive analyst/forumite strongly iterated that "SAMUEL CHUKWUEZE IS ONLY HIGHLY RATED BY PEOPLE IN THIS THREAD". So therefore i refuse to belive this. *in Orubebe voice* WE CANNOT TAKE THIS

Napoli striker Dries Mertens is willing to help new boys Victor Osimhen and Andrea Petagna settle at the club next season, reports Completesports.com.

Osimhen is on the verge of sealing a move to Serie A outfit Napoli from French side Lille.

“I want to help the team and the young people, that’s my future. I want to help Osimhen and Petagna, we can play together,”Mertens said in an interview with Radio Kiss Kiss Napoli.

“It’s difficult to come from another country and settle in, we must help them fit in here.”

Osimhen scored 18 goals and provided six assists in 38 appearances across all competitions for Lille in his debut season at the club.

The 21-year-old linked up with Lille from Belgian Pro League champions Sporting Charleroi last summer.

Valencia have enquired about Chukwueze according to villarrealusa.com. The club value the player at €40M but have set his starting price at €25M because of the economic situation caused by coronavirus.

I don't think Valencia would buy a player this period for 25M. 25M is cheap in my opinion, but not to Valencia.

Seconded, I don't trust Villareal to maintain their recent surge, they are erratic coupled with the fact that the fulcrum of their midfield might be gone should Fulham make it back to the EPL.

If they buy him, he will be a direct replacement for Ferran Torres who they are reportedly selling for 25M also.
But Chukwueze is easily better than Torres.
