I’m not sure why there is an argument about this. Young players clearly haven’t stepped up. Raonic, Dimitrov, Kyrgios and the like should’ve taken over the baton by now, but they’re not even close.
Djokovic is a real chance to go passed Federer if he stays fit. Zverev seems the most likely to take over and is still only 21. Maybe he really starts challenging over the next year or two. Thiem at least looks a chance at the French if Nadal gets injured. Not a lot else. The fact that Isner and Anderson are top 10 in the world and are making it deep in grand slams has got to be a cause for concern.
Nadal, Djokovic and Federer are still playing at a high level no doubt but I don’t think they are at the level they were 5-10 years ago.
