Noteworthy Absence
No, it’s not Said El Mala. Although the talented Cologne player was recently honored with a nomination for the senior national team due to his strong ability to take on defenders, he is not featured in this ranking.
U20 Dribbling Rankings
A new list of U20 dribblers highlights their success rates in offensive duels. While El Mala is absent, the Bundesliga still has solid representation.
Leading the Pack
Topping the list is a young talent who has drawn attention in Germany since September 4th: Leo Sauer. In the recent DFB team’s 0:2 loss to Slovakia, the 19-year-old was difficult to stop on the left flank, reaching a 91.2% success rate in his dribbles while playing for Feyenoord.
Close Contender
In second place is a rising Bundesliga player who has quickly become important at Leipzig — Yan Diomandé. The Ivorian has shown high skill, recording a 90.7% success rate in his dribbling attempts.
Keep an Eye On
While Kees Smit, Oskar Spiten-Nysaeter, and Mikel Gogorza may not be widely known, Hoffenheim’s Bazoumana Touré has likely gained attention among many fans. All ten players on this list are worth watching.
