Genoa club-trained players

On the record we can verify, 6 players club-trained at Genoa now play for other clubs we track, led by Nicolò Rovella (Lazio, value €18m), Jeff Ekhator (Juventus, value €15m) and Gabriele Calvani (Frosinone, value €14m).

• Nicolò Rovella · Lazio · €18m
• Jeff Ekhator · Juventus · €15m
• Gabriele Calvani · Frosinone · €14m
• Seydou Fini · Frosinone · €7m
• Patrizio Masini · Frosinone · €6m
• Mattia Perin · Juventus · €2m

We count a player as club-trained when his record shows him registered with the club for three entire seasons or 36 months between the ages of 15 and 21 (UEFA's home-grown test), wherever he started and whatever he cost; time on loan counts for the club that borrowed him.
