The Swiss Football Observatory has carried out an in-depth study on the taxation of young players in various football championships around the world. He reviewed the minutes played by players under the age of 21 at 1292 clubs, representing 93 divisions worldwide.
The result shows that, globally, the difference in the use of young players varies from 29% in the Slovak Super League to just 3.7% in the Turkish Super League. Slovaks are the first in this indicator, and Turks the last.
In South America: from 21.2% in Uruguay to 11.1% in Brazil. Of the 5 best championships in Europe, French Ligue 1 is the one that gives young players the greatest opportunity: 15%, which is 2 times more than in Spain, 7%, where those under 21 are less likely.
At club level # 1 in young children’s use is New Zealand’s elite Wellington Phoenix with an impressive 93.3%.
Of the big five in the European Championship, the one who most often trusts young people is French Lille with 32.1%. At the same time, however, 4 teams from the main leagues of the Old Continent have not played against a single player under the age of 21. These are Levante, Union Berlin, Crystal Palace and Sheffield United.
We also arrived in Bulgaria. efbet League is below the average use of young players by 9.2%, which is approximately three times less than the leading Slovakia (29%). The positive in this case is that the First League is still ahead of three of the best championships in Europe: England (8.5%), Italy (7.7%) and Spain (7%), only 0.6 % ahead of the Bundesliga.
Vitosha Bistritsa is the club that is mainly based on young players. During the campaign, 23.3% of the players used by the Tigers were under the age of 21. The second in this ranking of the Black Sea is 22%.
It is interesting that despite Ventseslav Stefanov’s words that Slavi imposes many more young players than Levski and CSKA, this is not very true. The blues are third in this indicator in the efbet League with 15.6%, and Slavia is behind them with 10.3%. CSKA is in fifth place with 9.3%.
Champion Ludogorets is at the bottom of the list. The Razgrad “Eagles” have used only 0.4% of the playing time of players under the age of 21. It’s only about 1 player. This is 19-year-old midfielder Ivan Yordanov, who played just 18 minutes in the victory over Tsarsko Selo with 2: 0./Meridian match
