Manchester City have had a reputation for producing top young talents for as long as anyone can remember.
The likes of Shaun Wright-Phillips, Micah Richards, Nedum Onuoha and Stephen Ireland all enjoyed careers at the top level after graduating from City's youth set-up, while Phil Foden is arguably the best talent to come out of an English academy in the past decade.
Year on year the level of players coming through the CFA moves up a notch or two, a constant improvement that is evidenced by the interest various Premier League and European clubs are showing in taking the youngsters off City's hands - and they are offering good money too.
