Pogba, Mbappe, Griezmann

Description

Paul Pogba, Kylian Mbappe and Antoine Griezmann were the stand-out stars of France's World Cup-winning team, drawing comparisons to the great class of '98. Be it Pogba's high-profile apprenticeships in the Premier League and Italy's Serie A, Griezmann's seizing his opportunity in Real Sociedad's youth academy or Mbappe's dazzling performances for AS Monaco in the UEFA Champions League, all three have forged their own distinct routes to the very top.
