USMNT youth starlet Kevin Paredes has been named alongside Liverpool and Manchester United wonderkids on this year's coveted Golden Boy longlist.
In previous years US prospects have made the list — which is compiled by Tuttosport of the best 100 players under the age of 21 currently playing in Europe — with the likes of Valencia's Yunus Musah and Borussia Dortmund’s Giovanni Reyna making the cut last time. Before that, national team talisman Christian Pulisic and former PSG forward Timothy Weah also were listed among the continent's most promising prospects.
This year, however, Wolfsburg wide midfielder Paredes is the only American to make the selection, with his performances in the Bundesliga having caught the eye over the past 12 months. The 20-year-old ace made 22 appearances for Die Wolfe last term, building on his couple of outings in the previous campaign.
