Euro 2024 is now just hours away from beginning and football fans from across Europe are gearing up for a feast of summer football.
Who will win the tournament? Who will take the Golden Boot? Which players will shine - and who will be the young stars that light up the tournament? Over the years, the likes of Wayne Rooney, Cristiano Ronaldo and Pedri - the latest star to announce his arrival on the big stage when he shone in Spain’s run to the semi-finals at Euro 2020 - have made a big impact.
While Jude Bellingham and Florian Wirtz will head to the tournament having already exploded on the European stage, which other young starlets could enter the tournament with little fanfare - but leave a superstar?
Here are the 10 young players with enormous potential that we’re tipping for big futures.
5. Kobbie Mainoo (England)
The 19-year-old English midfielder exploded onto the scene with Manchester United after an excellent debut season at Old Trafford. He scored the winning goal in the FA Cup final victory over Manchester City and was England's man of the match on his debut against Belgium. His rise to prominence has been so remarkable, he's in line to start for Gareth Southgate in Sunday's opening game against Serbia. | AFP via Getty Images Photo: Getty Images
6. Volodymyr Brazhko (Ukraine)
The imposing central midfielder has just broken into his national side but has already made a big impact on Ukrainian fans. Previously the captain of the under-21 side, Brazhko contributed nine goals in 26 games for Dynamo Kiev, despite playing in the deep-holding midfield role. Hasn't quite got the hype of international team mate Georgiy Sudakov but was impressive in Ukraine's play-off win over Iceland that secured their spot at the tournament. | Getty Images
7. Lamine Yamal (Spain)
Unbelievably, Yamal is just 16-years-old and already has seven caps and two goals for Spain. The Barcelona wonderkid has already been tipped as a future Ballon d'Or winner by Lionel Messi. He's already won La Liga and has stunning close control and appears to be born with astonishing technical ability. We repeat - and he is still just 16! | VANO SHLAMOV Photo: VANO SHLAMOV
8. Leo Sauer (Slovakia)
Officially Slovakia's youngest ever debutant , the 18-year-old winger has caught the eye of many after a promising campaign with Dutch giants Feyenoord. He gained UEFA Champions League experience with the Eredivisie outfit last season and a positive Euro 2024 campaign could see his reputation boom this summer. | Getty Images
