Chelsea made significant investments in their youth system, and although it took a while to see the results, a wave of promising young talents has emerged from Cobham in the last seasons.
It seems like Newcastle are the team that likes to use the help of Chelsea academy players, as they already have now Lewis Hall and Valentino Livramento in the squad.
Recently Newcastle United signed Lewis Hall from Chelsea on a loan deal with an obligation to buy at the end of the season. The fee, as reported by Mail Sport, will be £28million plus £7m in add-ons.
It is time to count, how much money Chelsea made as their graduates end up at Newcastle:
£35m from selling Hall to Newcastle directly
£5m from selling Livramento to Southampton in 2021
Up to £15.5m from Livramento's 50% sell-on clause as he left Southampton for Newcastle this summer.
Chelsea have made a pure £55m profit from their best academy players - almost enough to buy a Cucurella.
