The top young players, including a £95m Manchester United player, have been identified as the most valuable under the age of 21.

As the football season progresses, the top under-21 players in the world have been revealed, and it's no surprise that three Manchester United players have made the list. The CIES Football Observatory, a research group within the International Centre for Sports Studies in Switzerland, has calculated the value of these young talents, and the numbers are staggering.

Topping the list is none other than Barcelona and Spain's Lamine Yamal, who has taken the world by storm with his impressive performances at Euro 2024. Despite being only 17 years old, Yamal has already been valued at a whopping £150million, thanks to his heroic efforts in the Euros where he helped Spain secure the title and was also named Young Player of the Tournament. And it seems like he's not slowing down anytime soon, as he has continued to impress this season with five goals and seven assists in 12 La Liga appearances.

But Yamal is not the only Manchester United player making waves on the list. Alejandro Garnacho, the 20-year-old winger from Argentina, has been valued at £95m, making him Yamal's closest rival. He has been a standout player for United this season, contributing more goals than some of the biggest names in football such as Bukayo Saka, Kylian Mbappe, Phil Foden and Michael Olise.

Joining Garnacho in the top 20 are his fellow Red Devils, Kobbie Mainoo and Leny Yoro. Mainoo, who had a breakthrough season with both Manchester United and the England national team, has been valued at £62m, while Yoro, who is yet to make his debut for the club due to a pre-season injury, has been valued at £45m.

But Manchester United is not the only Premier League club represented on the list. Manchester City's Savio and Rico Lewis have also made the cut, with Lewis being a regular member of the England squad. Other Premier League stars in the top 100 include Aston Villa's Jhon Duran, Brighton's Evan Ferguson, Carlos Baleba, and Facundo Buonanotte, who has been impressing on loan at Leicester City.

The CIES Football Observatory has even gone a step further and named the top 100 most valuable youngsters in the world, with Lewis Hall from Newcastle also making the list after his impressive debut for England against Greece in the recent Nations League win. Other notable Premier League names on the list include Crystal Palace's Adam Wharton, Tottenham's Archie Gray, and Chelsea's Romeo Lavia.
