Brighton goalkeeper Robert Sanchez has been named amongst Europe's elite youngsters.
Sanchez has been named in WhoScored.com's U21 Team of the Month for August across Europe's top five leagues.
The other ten players in the side include Borussia Dortmund's trio Erling Haaland, Jude Bellingham and Giovanni Reyna and Bayern Munich's Alphonso Davies.
Sanchez is one of three Premier League players named in the team along with Manchester United's Mason Greenwood and Burnley's Dwight McNeil.
Many Albion fans may wonder how Sanchez has been named in and U21's side despite being 23-year-old.
Well in the smallprint under the team it states the goalkeeper must be 23 or under at the start of the season.
Sanchez enjoyed a successful August keeping one clean sheet as Albion picked up six points out of a possible nine.
