Pathways come from youth sections of biographies linked to exact player identities. A youth spell establishes neither exclusive training credit, regulatory club-trained status nor promotion to the first team.
The sample covers documented identities in current squads plus an editorial selection of players elsewhere. Counts are neither a national academy ranking nor an export rate. Missing periods remain visible.
