Already labelled the 'next Messi', Pietro Pellegri is the joint-youngest player to line up in Serie A. Born in 2001, he became the most expensive 16-year-old ever despite having played just 10 senior games for Genoa.
Pellegri also scored twice against Lazio, setting the record as the youngest player to score two goals in a game in one of Europe's top five leagues.

When Manchester United tried to sign Anderson from Porto in 2007, they saw their work permit application turned down due to a lack of experience. United argued that at 19, it was impossible for him to have any more experience having helped Porto to back-to-back Primeira Liga titles.
The application was successful, but Anderson's time at Old Trafford was not as good as expected, despite playing over 100 Premier League games.

A sensation with Benfica in his native country, midfielder Renato Sanches was bought by Bayern Munich even before he won the Young Player of the Tournament award at Euro 2016.

England's youngest ever goalscorer joined Manchester United from Everton in 2004 as an 18-year-old, having already played 67 times in the Premier League.

Having made his competitive debut with Southampton at just 16, England underage left-back Luke Shaw was one of the most desired young players in Europe.

Now at Tottenham following a £25 million switch, Brazilian winger Lucas Moura arrived in Paris in the summer of 2012 following a tug-of-war between Manchester United, Inter and PSG.

Real Madrid paid the buyout clause in Vinicius Junior's Flamengo contract following the Brazilian's standout performance at the 2017&nbsp;South American Under-17 Football Championship, where he picked up the award for the tournament's best player.
At the time of Madrid's offer, Vinicius had not even played a senior game of club football, but became one of their key players in the 2017 season as the Spanish side could not officially sign him until he turned 18. Vinicius will also spend 2018 and the first-half of 2019 back on loan in Brazil.

Anthony Martial became the world's most expensive teenager when he moved to Manchester United in September 2015. Two years earlier Monaco had spent just €5 million on him, taking a risk on the attacking midfielder despite just four senior games under his belt.
He flourished in his second season at Monaco, scoring 12 times in 48 appearances across all competitions, leading United to break the bank for his signature.

The French teenager netted 26 goals in all competitions in 2016-17 for Monaco, and has continued that dominance in front of goal in Paris.
