EPPP is a total joke, its barely ever reported but City did exactly the same with Jadon Sancho, pinching him off Watford at the age of 15 for the princely sum of £66000.

The idea that moving to a big academy automatically benefits these players is a joke, unless of course the FA consider playing in the Checkatrade trophy or on loan at Vitesse Arnhem to be more beneficial than actually playing in the premier league.

In addition it allows the big clubs that already enjoy a huge financial advantage to warehouse players away from other premier league clubs and often to make a nice profit on their sales to offset FFP
