The English Premier League is suspended as we know due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, we have had 29 rounds of the campaign and some younger players have thrived in the English top-flight. Here are some of the breakthrough stars of the campaign so far:

Dominic Calvert-Lewin (Everton)

The striker may no longer be considered a youngster at 23. However, he has certainly enjoyed the best campaign of his fledgeling career so far. Despite the Toffees inconsistent campaign, the former Sheffield United star has scored 13 times in 27 top-flight appearances, 22 of which have been starts.

The forward’s recent form had talk of a call-up to the England squad. However, with Euro 2020 pushed back a year, the striker has even more time to develop his game for the Merseysider’s.

Bukayo Saka (Arsenal)

The versatile youngster is another player who has caught the eye for his team this season. The 18-year-old, who can play at left-back and on the left-wing has made 18 top-flight appearances, producing three assists. However, his best form has been in the Europa League, where he scored twice and produced five assists in just six appearances. We are sure to see a lot more of the youngster in a Gunners shirt in years to come.

Mason Mount (Chelsea)

Having shined on loan at Derby under Chelsea head coach Frank Lampard, the 21-year-old has broken into the Blues team regularly this season. Like most youngsters, he has enjoyed ups and downs this season, but before the suspension of the league, the midfielder looked to be getting back to form.

Gabrielle Martinelli (Arsenal)

The Brazilian arrived quietly in north London in the summer. However, the 18-year-old has scored ten times in all competitions and looks like a bright prospect for the Gunners. With speculation over the Arsenal future of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, he may just get more regular football when the Premier League campaign resumes.
