A list of top talents and names that have been all over the football headlines over recent weeks. Out of the 13 players on this list; 7 play in the Bundesliga, 3 play in Ligue 1, 2 play in Serie A, 1 plays in La Liga. The top rated player, Florian Wirtz, is a very interesting case. At only 18 years of age his GCA90 is at 1.29, almost double what the 10th rated players are at. Seeing this many Bundesliga players on this list is quite eye opening, and is a hint that if GCA90 is the relevant statistic in the recruitment process for a club, the Bundesliga should be the first place to go and look for that player.
