Esposito is in this weird spot where he's probably too high risk for the rich English clubs but also I fully believe he's going to make the superstar leap and then get more expensive
He doesn't have the production yet, but he's showing signs of superstar talent. What's he worth?
Plus:
• MGW to PSG?
• Martinelli to Bayern?
• A Newcastle target to check out at the World Cup

This week's post for @TheTransferFlow is on how absurdly good Lamine Yamal already is. I wrote about:
- Yamal's linear progression
- One of the most dangerous on-ball threats
- How winning the WC as a teenager could put him in rarified air historically
