Children want to go outside and play. The curtain rises on the 2023-24 season Champions League A new generation of players is emerging who, despite their young age, already have a place among Europe’s elite.
The Norwegian striker Erling Haaland He seems to be one of the great protagonists of the continental competition. At just 23 years old, he already has 35 goals in 30 games (12 goals in 11 games with the Manchester City). He is the leader of the current champion’s offense and an integral part of the plan pep Guardiola.
At 20 years old, Jew Bellingham became the engine of real Madrid in season and in Europe promises to stay. He has scored five goals in as many games with the Merengues, who are at the top of the table with complete victories.
Except Jew, real Madrid It has elements like Vinicius (23 years), Rodrygo (22), Eduardo Camavinga (20), J Aurelien Tchouameni (23), who are part of the generational change in the club that dreams of the “15”.
And when it comes to trusting young talent, Barcelona It’s not far behind as it boasts a squad full of promising players; Gavi j Pedri they pull the strings in midfield; Alejandro Balde stands out laterally; for the band, Ferran Torres He has reunited with his best version; and front, Lamine Yamal It surprises with its quality even though it is only 16 years old.
At other latitudes it is arsenal from Mikel Arteta who returned to the maximum stage with new faces, such as Kai Havertz (24 years old) and Declan Rice (24), which included promising elements such as Bukayo Saka only 22 years old.
Talent knows no boundaries and Mexico has its representative: Santiago Gimenez He leads the Tricolor Legion on the Old Continent and will take part in the new UCL season with them Feyenoord. The youth squad Blue Cross will make his debut on the biggest stage, although his “first” will have to wait as he is suspended following his ejection last season Europe League.
