Johan Bakayoko

Johan Bakayoko is exactly the sort of young winger who makes you lean forward when he gets the ball. Belgian-French, he broke through at PSV with electric pace and a knack for cutting inside to shoot, earning a move to RB Leipzig and a place in the Belgium national team. He is still early enough in his career that the ceiling is genuinely unknown, which is the fun part. Wingers this direct can be frustratingly raw one week and unplayable the next. I will be curious whether he becomes a consistent star or stays a tantalizing what-if, but the raw tools are obviously there.
