A player who needs no introduction, Kylian Mbappé is easily the most talented and exciting young star on this list and could certainly go on to be one of the tournament's outstanding players. The former Monaco prodigy has already scored 3 goals in 12 appearances for France and won the prestigious Golden Boy award last year.

Having scored 15 league goals in a breathtaking debut campaign that helped Monaco to a Ligue 1 title, Mbappé became one of the most expensive players in the world with a transfer to French giants PSG, where his success has continued, having scored 21 goals in all competitions for the Parisian side this season as they won the treble of French titles.

He's only 19 and has already won more than many players much older than him. Mbappé has a very bright future ahead and plays with an incredible level of confidence in even the biggest matches. France have a lot of exciting players this summer, but he's definitely one of the best and is sure to start most, if not all of his country's games.
