This year’s edition features five players who are considered among the youngest participants in the tournament, led by Mexican Gilberto Moura, the Club Tijuana midfielder, who is 17 years and 7 months old, and who is followed by a number of major European clubs.
The list also includes Czech Hugo Suchorek, who is 17 years and 11 months old, and who is distinguished by a strong physical structure, as he stands 1.83 meters tall.
From Germany, the name Lennart Karl, 18 years and 3 months old, stands out thanks to his great passing ability.
Senegalese Ibrahima Mbaye, who is 18 years and 4 months old, will also attend, after he recently made history as the youngest scorer for the Senegal national team in the African Cup of Nations.
In the Arab world, Egyptian Hamza Abdel Karim is stealing the spotlight, a striker aged 18 years and 4 months, after his remarkable brilliance in the U-17 World Cup in 2025, where he scored two goals, which gave him the opportunity to be with the first team alongside prominent names such as Mohamed Salah and Omar Marmoush.
Abdel Karim recently appeared in several photos alongside Salah, amid news of the Liverpool star’s interest in this rising talent. (Arabic)
