Arsenal star Bukayo Saka has been ranked alongside Paris Saint-Germain's Ousmane Dembele and Lamine Yamal - from Barcelona - for their Champions League displays this season.
All three exciting attackers are representing their respective teams in the semi-finals of Europe's top competition and the trio experienced differing first legs earlier this week. While Dembele and Yamal both found the back of the net, Saka was kept quiet by PSG left-back Nuno Mendes.
Despite scoring a stunner against Inter, Yamal's Barcelona are not favourites to qualify for the final from the last-four and that's because they drew their home tie 3-3 with the second leg in Italy next Wednesday night.
As for Dembele and PSG, a 1-0 win away from home makes it very likely they will be in Munich especially because of how they dominated Liverpool and Aston Villa at the Parc des Princes in earlier knock-out rounds.
Saka, meanwhile, fresh off shining in the last Champions League outing against Real Madrid, had just one attempt at goal - with his most notable moment being harshly penalised for a soft foul on Mendes before he was shown a yellow card for kicking the ball away.
Though he has been injured for a large portion of the season, Saka has still managed seven Champions League goal contributions. Yamal, meanwhile, moved up to nine after his superb strike earlier this week while Dembele is top of the three on 11.
Despite that, a number of content creators associated with the Baller League - a new five-a-side tournament with a twist - have ranked him as the best Champions League winger this term, via TikTok. Even though he betters both for direct goal involvements, Dembele is mostly placed third, while Yamal is second.
The ranking system is somewhat flawed, however, as the Frenchman has frequently been deployed as the central striker in a front three. Luis Enrique may be forced to make a change in attack, though, with Dembele forced off in the first leg because of a hamstring issue.
Not having him available in Paris would be a crucial blow and, with Arsenal set to receive a boost in the form of Thomas Partey returning, the visitors are certainly capable of a comeback. Yamal may also want to face Saka and his teammates in the final following on from his unexpected Arsenal admission to Thierry Henry.
Speaking to the teenager after the 3-3 draw against Inter, the Arsenal legend said - on CBS Sports. "I'm going to watch the [El] Clasico [Barcelona vs Real Madrid], would it be possible for you to give me your shirt, for my son?"
Yamal replied: "I'll have to do a swap, you have mine and I'll have yours."
"The Barça one, I suppose?," Henry asked him.
"Barcelona, the Arsenal shirt, whichever one you want," the teenager responded. Even though he has played for Barcelona for all of his life, that comment suggests he may also be a big fan of the Gunners!
