Arda Güler (Turkey)
The youngster is poised to become the next big thing in Turkish football. His footballing ability is so great that he was labelled as ‘Turkish Messi.’ Currently, at Real Madrid, Arda Güler has shown his immense quality in the few minutes he was given. The 19-year-old was the star of his team in the 2024 UEFA Euros tournament and fans will hope that he will replicate the same form from now on.
Harry Wilson (Wales)
The Fulham midfielder has been on the scoresheet for the national team in the past three matches. He will play a crucial role for Wales against a difficult opponent like Turkey. His biggest strength is his ability to find his teammates with his long balls. The 27-year-old will be relied on by his coach and teammates to lead them over the line.
