Bundesliga outfit RB Lepzig have developed a knack for identifying the world's best young players over recent years, examples of which include Timo Werner, Dayot Upamecano and the Liverpool-bound Naby Keita.

Among the latest batch of prospects they've picked up is 23-year-old Swiss goalkeeper Yvon Mvogo, signed in the summer from the appropriately-named Young Boys for a fee thought to be in the region of €5m.

Opportunities in Germany have so far been limited, but you needn't look further than his performances in his homeland for proof that he's a star in the making, having played more than 100 games in the Swiss top flight (and for one of its biggest sides).

That, coupled with his new employers' track record in developing youngsters, and the fact that he's already been called up several times for Switzerland (albeit without being capped), has to be a good omen for his future.
