The Top 10 Wonderkids In World Football Right Now Have Been Ranked

Jadon Sancho has beaten fellow Borussia Dortmund starlet Erling Haaland to be named the top wonderkid in world football.

The 20-year-old England international, who has been heavily linked with Manchester United, has become one of Europe's fastest-rising stars alongside Haaland.

But Sancho walks away with the ultimate bragging rights on this occasion as he topped a star-studded list of wonderkids.

The Daily Star compiled the rankings and said that the United target has already become a 'world-beater.'

The newspaper pointed out why Sancho has become one of Europe's most promising talents with his stats in the Bundesliga, United's interest and the whopping £108m price tag Dortmund have slapped on him.

Haaland, 20, also impressed during the previous campaign with both RB Salzburg and Dortmund.

The Norwegian striker, who made the switch to current club Dortmund in January, scored 28 times in 22 appearances for Salzburg in the first half of the season.

And Haaland carried over his fine goalscoring exploits to Dortmund as he scored 13 times in his first 15 appearances in the Bundesliga.

The Daily Star praised the Dortmund striker and said he is already showing signs of being 'one of the world's best centre-forwards.'

Bayern Munich left-back Alphonso Davies, who won a treble with the German side last season, secured the third spot in the rankings.

Manchester United's Mason Greenwood and Manchester City's Phil Foden were the only two players to represent the Premier League.
