Santa Clara club-trained players

On the record we can verify, 2 players club-trained at Santa Clara now play for other clubs we track, led by João Afonso (Porto, value €2m) and Paulo Henrique (Marítimo, value €1m).

• João Afonso · Porto · €2m
• Paulo Henrique · Marítimo · €1m

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.
