17 days into a new decade of football to look forward to, late happy new year to all the CAF.
We've had Messi, Ronaldo dominate but their time is coming to an end, and soon the same with Suarez, probably Hazard too etc. We've seen the likes of Xavi, Iniesta, Scholes, Bastian retire and players like Kroos, Kante take their spots. We've not been blessed with many classic defenders these past years, maybe that will change next 5-10 years? Van Djik would be 33, hopefully he'll have more competitors to the throne by then, who will it be?
So make your predictions. Which players will earn their stripes and prove themselves world class for their club and national teams the next 5 years.
I'll start off with a couple of safe ones
Tier one: Mbappe
Tier two: Rashford
Tier three: B. Williams
