The Aston Villa academy has produced a host of first-team players in their history and manager Unai Emery even has a handful of previous Aston Villa academy graduates in his squad today.
Britain’s first £100 million player and former Villa captain, Jack Grealish, is an alumnus, while current midfielder Jacob Ramsey joined the claret-and-blue team at the age of six.
But who are the Villans’ current set of academy players trying to make it to Villa Park?
