AMONG TOP-20 BEST SCHOOLS IN EUROPE BY THE NUMBER OF GRADUATES
Dinamo-Minsk Academy entered the top 20 best football schools in Europe in terms of the number of students who became professional players.
A few days ago, the 2021 ranking of the best European football schools was published on the official website of the CIES observatory. The list shows the teams that raised the most active professional players. The CIES has also developed a Training Index, an indicator that measures the number of players trained according to the level of their clubs (through a coefficient based on national league and international club competition results), their level of employment (over the past year), and their age.
According to this rating, this year the Dinamo-Minsk Academy takes 17th place (44 players)! The list also includes three more Belarusian clubs: FC Minsk (31 players), BATE (36) and Neman (22).
According to UEFA's definition, football school graduates are players who have played for a club for at least three seasons between the ages of 15 and 21.
