Alireza Firouzja is an Iranian chess player but weak in classic games and can't become world champion. He's strong in fast games.
Fast games aren't the right criterion for evaluating a chess player's level. Even in the classic game Magnus has no advantage over Fabiano.
Kramnik's problem is his age but he is far superior to Magnus in terms of playing level. Kramnik plays beautiful and creative .

Firouzja is currently tied for the lead in the Tata Steel tournament. He's not weak in Classical. I think he beat Giri which is not an easy thing to do. He may stall out in his progress as so many prodigies do, but he's not showing any signs of that so far.
he is and will be a candidate, but stronger than caruana? even caruana didn't won from magnus in classical chess.
I vote andrew tang?
After Round 7 at Tata Steel, Firouzja is leading by a half point(with a tournament performance rating of 2889). In Round 9 he has White against Carlsen who has drawn all of his games so far. I'm looking forward to that game.
