Since when? | ||

Doesn't mean you "produce" world class players with a world class youth academy.. he means world class facilities and structure for the youth academy. Which they have, just like Chelsea, Man Utd and Man City have done theirs up too. Plus current players from the Real Madrid academy are the likes of Juan Mata - Casillias - Ramos - Esteban Granero - Raul - Guti - Roberto Soldado. Not bad for the past say 5 years of talent. Plus there just the ones who have actually made it as of now xD | ||

The "problem" for Madrid is that the club is too rich to make any effort to bring in youth players unless the players are good enough to fit into the team. That's why RM sell their young players with a clause to buy them back a few years later. May happen to Carvajal from Leverkusen, played a solid season as RB and I think RM are gonna buy him back this or next offseason. Edit on the Carvajal situation: RM has the option to buy him back for a specified amount of money until 2015 | ||

RM do that a lot indeed and with a buy back clause it's more interesting for the feeder club than just a normal loan. | ||

I think it looks pretty awesome :D This year they look like an icecream lol Btw the Saint George flag is also on the Barça emblem ^^ Top left part. | ||

Between City and the Yankees, that's an unbelievable amount of money and a huge number of MLB championships. | ||
