The Swiss-based International Center for Sports Studies (CIES Football Observatory) has released a ranking of European clubs with the most productive youth academies.
It is reported that the ranking evaluated the number of club pupils playing in the top 58 leagues in the world. A pupil is a footballer who has spent at least three years in the club's structure between the ages of 15 and 21.
It is pleasant to note that Dynamo Kyiv is on the 6th position in this ranking (56 pupils)! Only Real Madrid, Barcelona of Catalonia, Ajax of Amsterdam, Red Star Belgrade and Benfica of Lisbon are higher than the White and Blues in the ranking.
