Espanyol to take time with teenage quartet.

With Espanyol guaranteed to progress to the next stage of the youth cup with 5 wins from 5, the manager is happy to not thrust his teenage sensations into action.

Eliesse Ben Seghir at just 18 burst onto the scene in France late last year and already has a transfermkt vaiue of £18 million, his value is expected to rise again this month given his performances and stats.

This past weekend Arda Guler starred as Fenerbache won the Turkish cup. Also just 18 and not 19 until next year, Newcastle United are trying to bring him to England. With a transfermkt value of £15 million after another £4 million increase this week, the talented attacking midfielder dubbed the Turkish Messi has his suitors in top 100.

Alvaro Rodriguez 18 has broken on the scene at Real Madrid this season, so much so they blocked him going to the under 20 world cup in which he is Uruguays star man. Despite his absence, Uruguay won the world cup last night with another Espanyol man 19 year old Luciano Rodriguez grabbing the winner against Italy. Luciano is being chased by Barcelona and Real madrid, and his stock would of risen further after last nights heroics.

The teenage theme don’t quite end with this quartet, as Liverpools Kaide Gordon 18, Argentinian star Julian Fernandez, Santos break out star Wessley Patati 19, French star El Arouch, Englands Adam Wharton, German striker Keke Topp, Croatian Roko Simic are all notable players playing first team football and representing their countries.

“We’ve a pool of teenage talent, who are making notable contributions in world football. We wanted a conveyor belt affect at this club. Last seasons youth team who reached the final, some are now in the first team. This seasons youth team also has players now getting some first team action. The natural progression will be these teenage stars, who could become not only part of a dominant youth team, but have the all the signs of being some of the games top players. We continue to scout wide and far with a growing shortlist. This has meant we’ve had to sell a few for cash, with Nanasi and Sasaki two examples of that this season, where we reluctantly let them go despite the signs they could be really good players.”
