Four BVB talents in the top 100, only one club tops Dortmund | OneFootball

A special honor for no fewer than four Borussia Dortmund talents. In the Golden Boy ranking, only one club can boast more youngsters than BVB.

Borussia Dortmund is prominently represented in the current Golden Boy 2026 ranking. No fewer than four BVB first-team players are among the 100 highest-rated young talents in Europe. In the club comparison, only FC Porto can boast more talents.

The highest-ranked Dortmund player is Konstantinos Karetsas. The 18-year-old attacking midfielder, whom BVB signed from KRC Genk this summer, moved up three places compared to the previous edition and now sits in 22nd place. Karetsas is therefore immediately the highest-ranked BVB talent on the list.

Two young center-backs are also among the top 100. Luca Reggiani is currently in 39th place. Joane Gadou, also a new signing for the Black and Yellows, made a particularly big leap forward in the latest update. The 19-year-old Frenchman climbed 11 places from 76th to 65th. Samuele Inácio completes Dortmund’s quartet. After a slight drop, the 18-year-old is currently listed in 72nd place.

Golden Boy: BVB with four talents in the top 100

With a total of four players, BVB is therefore among the clubs with the most represented talents in Europe. Only FC Porto is ahead of Dortmund with five players. Said El Mala is also of interest to BVB. The 1. FC Köln winger is likewise considered one of the highly rated Bundesliga talents and has been heavily linked with a move to Dortmund. If the transfer goes through, the number of Dortmund candidates could increase once again in the future.

There has also been movement at the top of the Golden Boy ranking. Pau Cubarsí of FC Barcelona has overtaken his teammate Lamine Yamal and now leads the list. Real Madrid’s Yan Diomande is also among the leading group.

Since this year, Transfermarkt has been compiling the list together with Tuttosport and has been updating it monthly since July. Players born in 2006 or later from the 25 strongest top European leagues are eligible for the ranking. In October, those responsible will reduce the field to 20 candidates. After that, an international jury of experts will determine the winner of the Golden Boy 2026.
