The New Generation

When PSG tore through Inter Milan in the Champions League final, it wasn’t just a win — it was a generational shift. The youngest squad in the tournament (average age: 24.5) outclassed the oldest, with 19-year-olds Désiré Doué and Senny Mayulu stealing the spotlight.

Football Is Getting Younger

This wasn’t an isolated moment. Across global football, youth is taking over — and France is leading the way. From Ligue 1 to the national team setup, young players are being trusted earlier, developed faster, and selling for more. Clubs that don’t adapt risk being left behind.

A Unique Youth Development Model

The French youth system advocates for a raw and intuitive playing style — blending late arrivals at academies with highly schooled prospects from federation-run talent centers. This dual track creates players who are both instinctive and tactically mature. It’s this hybrid model that underpins France’s dominance at youth and senior levels alike.

Raw Talent, Real Results

France’s ability to turn street talent into elite-level pros is unmatched. The development of this raw talent mass has translated into consistent success on the international stage — and massive transfer value at the club level. That pipeline starts early, and the signs are often visible well before a player makes headlines.

Scouting Youth Football Has Changed

Today, talent ID needs to start younger and go deeper. Traditional scouting methods can’t keep pace with the speed of modern development. WithEyeball’s youth football talent analysis tools, coaches and clubs can spot trends, evaluate players through data and video, and move earlier than the competition.

See the Next Doué Before Everyone Else

Players like Doué and Mayulu have been showing their potential for years — the question is whether you had access to the footage and data to track it. On Eyeball, you can. Ourfootball analysis software includes match footage,individual player clips, andaggregated stats that bring a player’s development into clear focus.
