6. Jude Bellingham – 17 years 02 months 16 days
Borussia Dortmund beat out competition from a number of big clubs to sign Jude Bellingham from Birmingham City for a fee of €25 million. The 17 year old did not have to wait long for his Borussia Dortmund debut, as he started in the opening game of the season against MSV Duisburg.
He marked his debut with a goal in the first round of the DFB-Pokal, and his stock kept rising with every passing game.
Bellingham not only became an England international and Borussia Dortmund’s third captain, but also carried both club and country on his back at the biggest stage and established himself as one of the world’s most talented midfielders.
Jude Bellingham’s incredible performances and maturity for Borussia Dortmund saw him earn a €103 million move to Real Madrid, where he will hope to pick up where he left off in Germany and reach even greater heights.
