Billy Gilmour

Honestly, Billy Gilmour is one of those players where the eye test just does not lie — you watch him in midfield and wonder how someone standing 170 cm gets away with bossing the ball like that. Born in Irvine in 2001, he came up through Chelsea's academy and made waves young, but it was his move to Napoli that really felt like him backing himself on a bigger stage. His passing range and his ability to win possession in tight spaces are genuinely elite for his age group. Scotland fans have been riding for this kid for years, and watching him slot into the national team picture gives the whole setup a different look. He's still in his early twenties — the ceiling here is legitimately exciting.
