10. Anthony Martial
One of the hot new stars on the global soccer scene is Anthony Martial, a 19-yr-old French player who currently plays for Manchester United in the English Premier League. For the last two years, he was a player for the French soccer club, Monaco, but his transfer to Manchester United was recently completed for a whopping 36 million pounds. That’s the highest transfer fee ever paid for a teenager. To date, his career as Manchester United has been a great success. He has scored 4 goals in 3 games, and he’s looking like he’s worth every cent of his humongous transfer tab. He has already garnered comparisons to another French soccer icon, Thierry Henry, and his future looks very bright indeed.
