A handful of the best emerging talents to seek out as they look to make waves around Europe this summer

The latest talent to emerge from the famed “Bromma Boys” production line in Stockholm after Bojan Djordic and John Guidetti. Kulusevski has made steady progress in his first full season at Juventus and was the hero of their Coppa Italia victory over his former club Atalanta. Having moved to Italy three months after his 16th birthday, the forward spent two spells at Parma and joined Juve for more than £30m last year. Kulusevki, whose father is from North Macedonia, was born in Sweden but represented Macedonia at under 16 and 17 level before making the switch and is often compared to Zlatan Ibrahimovic in his homeland. “He can do things by himself and can decide a game by himself,” said former England manager Sven Goran Eriksson last year. “Sweden need that and have always had that but right now we don’t.”
