The Three Lions: The 2024 European Championship has acted as a stepping stone for youngsters. The tournament has showcased the absolute best talent that is on offer. In a footballing world where we are used to hearing the names Cristiano Ronaldo and Harry Kane, we’ve been left awestruck by the likes of Lamine Yamal and Kobbie Mainoo.

The 19-year-old Mainoo broke onto the scene in the latter stages of the 2023/24 season and was instrumental in their FA Cup victory. Ahead of their game against Spain in the final on Sunday, former Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has praised the young maestro stating he has the ‘wow factor’.

“I've watched him closely and the first 30% of passes of the ball he gets in a game, in those opening minutes, he is happy just playing the ball short, five or 10 yards, waiting for the right moment for his natural raw ability to come out,” read the column posted by Rio Ferdinand on BBC.
