Thanks Eamonn.
Yes, you will be surprised with the amount of players that are being snapped up by the Spanish club from this academy of Glenn Hoddle. As I was doing a bit of research for this piece I got to know that two others players agreed to join two second devision Spanish clubs. It will be interesting to know how much are this players worth and who exactly is getting the money if there is any? If not then I think this whole private academy is great for smaller clubs to get quality/moderate players on cheap plus this thing is inspiring more British players to play abroad which is always a good thing.
Private academies are football's new lifeline
