During the 2023-2024 Premier League season, Manchester United provided the most minutes to players from their own academy, with a total of 11,835 minutes, according to TheSecretScout.
Chelsea were second, with just 8,213 minutes.
Carrington has always been a breeding ground of talent.

From Bobby Charlton, to the Class of ’92, to Kobbie Mainoo, it is Manchester United’s tradition and heritage to produce their own talents and this looks set to continue.
United have put significant investment into Carrington and youth recruitment and will be hoping for short and long term results.
Here are 5 Manchester United academy stars who I think are destined to debut for the first team this season.
1. Harry Amass

Harry Amass was signed from Watford in August 2023 and has quickly emerged as a top prospect for Manchester United.
With Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia dealing with injuries and the club failing to sign a true left-back in the transfer market, Amass will likely get an opportunity to step up and get some minutes for this first team this season.
Having already featured in pre-season, fans have already seen his ability on show.
Amass registered an assist for Amad Diallo when United beat Real Betis 3-2 in August.
Technically, Harry Amass possesses everything required: he’s extremely secure in possession, tactically intelligent for his age, and has impressive creative output – all essential traits for the modern fullback.
If Amass can improve his defensive awareness, he could swiftly establish himself as a Manchester United first team regular for a long term.
As Erik ten Hag noted, “In this moment, he needs to catch up and develop some of the skills needed to play for Manchester United, as we compete for the highest positions in the league.”
United fans should be very excited as Harry Amass can be the club’s first choice left back for the next 10 years sooner rather than later.
