20. Chris Durkin 🇺🇸

Still only 20, Durking finds himself in Belgium with Sint-Trulden, with the club purchasing him after a successful loan. After a tough season with DC United, Durkin made this move last summer. A defensive midfielder, Durkin has become a regular for the first team, reestablishing himself as a viable first team prospect for the national team.

19. Travian Sousa 🇺🇸

A solid left back prospect, Sousa started the year in Hamburg’s U19s. 2019/20 saw the 18-year-old rise to Hamburg II and then eventually debuting for Hamburg in a friendly during the winter break.

18. Sebastian Soto 🇺🇸 🇨🇱

Getting a move to Norwich City this window from Hannover, Soto is a dynamic striker. Still only 20, Soto will have to leave Norwich on loan due to work permit issues, and will likely end up in the Eredivisie.

17. Leonardo Sepulveda 🇺🇸

Playing for Salamanca II in Segunda B, Sepulveda is one of the more talented defenders the US has in their pool. Only 19, Sepulveda has done well in his first season in Spain and has been something of a regular for the youth side.

16. Charlie Kelman 🇺🇸 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

The 18-year-old center forward for Southend United has made a great impact this season. Transfer rumors indicate the young American might move to a higher level in the English league this summer.

15. Owen Otasowie 🇺🇸 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

A young 19-year-old centerback for Wolves, Owen plays for the side’s U23 team, but trains regularly with the first team. He has made the bench several times during the premier league season and was even added to the Wolves Europa league roster.

14. Jalen Hawkins 🇺🇸 🇩🇪

One of the more underrated prospects, Hawkins was quietly moved from Ingolstadt’s U19s and offered a first team contract after this last season saw him score 7 goals and have 3 assists. In the 2.Bundesliga, the 19-year-old will be looking for an opportunity to show his talents for the first team.

13. Alex Mendez 🇺🇸 🇲🇽

The 19-year-old centeral midfielder had been a regular with Jong Ajax, but has started preseason with their first team. Hoping to break through in the 2020/21 season, Mendez has been a highly rated prospect for a while who will be looking to turn that talent into performance.

12. Cameron Harper 🇺🇸 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Only 18, Harper has been playing for a very good Celtic’s reserves side. Unafraid to take players on and clinical in the box, Harper will hope to break into Celtic’s first team next season

11. Indiana Vassilev 🇺🇸 🇧🇬

Just 19, Vassilev is a skillful left winger with Aston Villa. Seeing the bench often for Villa’s first team, Vassilev saw his first team debut this past season with late substitute appearances.

10. Nicholas Giocchini 🇺🇸 🇮🇹

This 19-year-old center forward has been a break out for the Caen first team this past season. Starting the season on their B team, Giocchini has made 16 appearances in Ligue 1 for the club and 1 appearances in the Coupe de France, where he scored a goal on his debut there.

9. Chris Gloster 🇺🇸

A regular for Jong PSV, Chris has seen recent training with the club’s first team, and has been getting called up for the preseason friendlies, though lacking consistent playing time. Though an injury interrupted his season last year, the left back will be looking to break into PSV in 2020/21.

8. Ulysses Llanez 🇺🇸 🇲🇽

With 11 goals and 6 assists to Wolfsburg II, the 19-year-old has become a breakout performer for the side’s reserves. This next season Llanez will be looking to break into Wolfsburg’s first team, making his Bundesliga debut.

7. Josh Sargent 🇺🇸

Still only 20, Sargent saw only 4 goals and 4 assists for a Werder Bremen side that was ultimately relegated. Mostly a substitute, Sargent struggled to make an impact for the side, though a season in the 2.Bundesliga could be just what his development needs.

6. Konrad de la Fuente 🇺🇸 🇪🇸

Still only 19, Konrad has been a regular for Barcelona B this season, becoming an important player in their (ultimately unsuccessful) fight for promotion to Segunda. However, toward the end of the season, Konrad trained more regularly with Barcelona’s first team, and even saw the bench as a substitute in Barcelona’s final few Champions League games.

5. Richie Ledezma 🇺🇸 🇲🇽

Ledezma played for Jong PSV last year, ending the shortened season with 4 goals and 3 assists. Known for his line breaking passes, ability to get out of trouble, and cool head in front of goal, the 19-year-old has shown prominently in PSV’s preseason friendlies, and hopefully can continue good form and break into their first team.

4. Chris Richards 🇺🇸

Playing both right back and centerback for Bayern II, Richards has several suiters for a loan deal, though parent club Bayern Munich also claims to have him in their first team plans for the 2020/21 season. Hopefully, wherever he ends up, the 20-year-old can start to see first team minutes in Germany’s top flight.

3. Tim Weah 🇺🇸 🇫🇷

Weah got his big move to Lille OSC last season, however, an early injury and the cancellation of Ligue 1 saw Weah’s season come to an end after only a few appearances. However, healthy once again, this looks to be the year the 20-year-old winger lives up to the potential that is so evident in him every time he plays.

2. Sergino Dest 🇺🇸 🇳🇱

An already proven talent, Dest has been playing for Ajax’s first team as a right back, scoring 2 goals and having 6 assists. With transfer rumors to Juventus, Bayern Munich, and Barcelona circling, it is looking like the 19-year-old will leave Holland this summer.

1. Giovanni Reyna 🇺🇸 🇵🇹
