Italian magazine Tuttosport has published list of 100 candidates

The list of 100 candidates for the 2018 Golden Boy award was published by Tuttosport. The award recogises the best player under 21 years old in the world.

World champion Kylian Mbappe, who won last year too, is likely to be the prime candidate to win again after a fine season with PSG. 

In Spain Barcelona have Carles Alena and Lazar Carevic up for the award, while Real Madrid have Luca Zidane and Achraf Hakimi. Manchester City's Brahim Diaz and Sevilla's Bilal Boutobba are also on the list.

Mbappe fired France to World Cup glory, knocking out Lionel Messi's Argentina on the way.
