World Cup shop window: One from each nation out to impress, Group C

Australia: Daniel Arzani (Melbourne City)
There is a huge buzz Down Under around the 19-year-old attacker, who will be youngest player in the tournament. Arzani plays for Melbourne City, so anyone who wants to take a punt on the Iranian-born teenager will have to get behind Man City in the queue.

Denmark: Pione Sisto (Celta Vigo)
The powerful winger has two seasons at Celta Vigo under his belt, and five goals and nine assists to his name last season. Southampton are said to be among the clubs tracking the 23-year-old, who is likely to be available for around £15million.

France: Thomas Lemar (Monaco)
Liverpool and Arsenal have been chasing the Monaco star for some time, while Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are also said to be extremely keen. The 22-year-old probable starter will have his pick of clubs with an impressive showing in Russia.

Peru: Miguel Araujo (Alianza Lima)
“Alianza know the idea is to look for an overseas option,” said the 23-year-old central defender’s agent. Lazio were among the clubs to take note when Araujo shackled Lionel Messi in a World Cup qualifier last October.
