Tottenham and West Ham youngsters Kyle Walker-Peters and Reece Oxford have been named alongside Marcus Rashford, Gabriel Jesus and Kylian Mbappe in the short list for the 2017 European Golden Boy award.
Oxford, who is currently on-loan at Bundesliga side Borussia Munchengladbach and is yet to feature this season, makes this list despite having not made a single top flight appearance in the calendar year, having spent the second half of last season with Reading in the Championship, for whom he appeared five times.
The annual award, run by Italian outlet Tuttosport, was last won by now on-loan Swansea midfielder Renato Sanches after his exploits at the European Championships in France, with Raheem Sterling and Wayne Rooney the only two English players to have won the accolade since its inception in 2003.
