I had been at [Manchester] City for three years, so I was aware of all of our best young talent, but I was also aware of all the young players of, say, [born in] 2002 right the way up to 2007/8.

Cheltenham Town has won each of their last three consecutive appearances, showcasing a dominant performance with a 4-0 victory against Walsall earlier this month.

Christian Kofane has wasted no time making his mark at Bayer Leverkusen. Strong, direct, and fearless in the final third, his playing style has even drawn early comparisons to Samuel Eto'o, which is not a comparison that gets thrown around lightly.

Michael Olise is now a genuine world-beater and a cog as vital as anyone for an imperious Bayern side, showcasing immense talent and creativity.

Barcelona's hierarchy believes that a loan move for Roony Bardghji could be essential for his development, as he has struggled for playing time this season.
