#3 Ajax
Almost no other football academy in the world has produced as many phenomenal players as Amsterdamsche Football Club Ajax in the last few decades. The names include Johan Cruyff, Patrick Kluivert, Dennis Bergkamp, Edwin van der Sar, Clarence Seedorf and so on. The players start out at the Dutch club in their initial years, helping the club dominate, and eventually move on to bigger leagues.

This philosophy has served the club pretty well as they are the most successful club in the Netherlands ahead of Feyenoord and PSV Eindhoven. Not even a couple of seasons pass by without a new name emerging into the spotlight that takes the world by storm, with the most recent one being that of Kasper Dolberg.
The notion of nurturing their own players is one that endears every football fan to the club. With the club slowly expanding its recruiting programs to South Africa and the USA and opening academies outside the Netherlands, Ajax will continue to provide the world with top players in the near future as well.
