By: Yuxi Nan

There are many talented young football players playing in the Euro 2024 this year in Germany. And all of them have a lot of potential to show off their skills this summer. Fans are looking forward to seeing these youngsters’ performance and skills on the field.


First, 16-year-old Lamine Yamal, a Spanish professional footballer has shown exceptional performance so far in the Euro Cup. Playing for Spain, he is breaking all sorts of impressive records at both club and national level including youngest goalscorer in La Liga history and youngest player and scorer for Spain. Coincidently, if the Barcelona player makes it all the way at the Euros, he will turn 17 the day before the final.


Next, 21-year-old Xavi Simons, playing for Netherlands, has definitely shown off his skills and versatility on the field this year. The Euro 2024 seems to be a turning point in Xavi’s international career, as he has represented and scored for the Netherlands at youth level, but has yet to represent the senior side.


Another impressive football player in the Euro Cup this year is the 21-year-old Florian Wirtz. Playing for Germany, he has helped his club, Bayer Leverkusen, become the first German team to go an entire Bundesliga season unbeaten, playing an important role in every game. At the same time he has scored 18 goals and 19 assists in 47 games this season, and also has nine siblings with an elder sister also playing professional football.


Fans are very excited to see more of these young players and many more are to come.
