The exciting Manchester United winger has made the 100-man list of nominees for the trophy, awarded by Italian newspaper Tuttosport, with the fan-backed category one of those up for grabs, in addition to the accolade decided by a jury of top journalists.
Players born on or after 2003, and competing in Europe, are eligible this time around, with last year's winner Gavi, the Barcelona schemer, among a whole host of big names in contention, including Real Madrid new boy Jude Bellingham, and Bayern Munich ace Jamal Musiala.
