While they may not be household names yet, a number of individuals who are set to take part in this month's tournament have the potential to shine
Some of the best teenage talents in the world will be on show in the coming weeks as Ireland hosts the Under-17 European Championships.
The tournament kicks-off on Friday, with the likes of France, England, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal and defending champions Netherlands all involved.
But who are the players that fans should be keeping an eye on? Goal takes a look at some of the potential stars…

Despite Adeyemi playing his football for Austrian second division outfit FC Liefering, the speedy forward arrives in Ireland as the star man among the current German crop.
A regular starter at senior level for the best part of a year, it is believed that he will make the step up to join Austrian champions Red Bull Salzburg in the not-too-distant future.

Upon his arrival at Chelsea in January 2018, then 16-year-old striker Ballo claimed that he wanted to be in the first-team picture within a year in west London.
That has not quite come to pass, but he has still earned rave reviews and carries much of Austria's hopes on his shoulders this month.

Likened to Romelu Lukaku due to his physical stature and eye for goal, striker Brobbey is one of a number of talented teens who look set to step up into the Ajax first team in the coming years.
Part of the Oranje squad which won this competition in 2018, he is a decent bet to finish as top goalscorer this time around.

While most Italy fans are resting their hopes on Moise Kean to end their wait for a regular goalscorer at international level, in Esposito they may have an even more clinical finisher to look out for.
He became the first player born in 2002 to feature in top level European competition when making his debut for Inter in their Europa League clash with Eintracht Frankfurt in March.
