St. Johnstone club-trained players

• Taylor Steven (FWD): 660 league minutes
• Ross Sinclair (GK): 166 league minutes
• Kyle Thomson (GK): no league minutes yet

On the record we can verify, 3 players club-trained at St. Johnstone now play for other clubs we track, led by Ali McCann (Preston North End, value €2m), Stevie May (Livingston, value €130k) and Zander Clark (Hearts, value €100k).

• Ali McCann · Preston North End · €2m
• Stevie May · Livingston · €130k
• Zander Clark · Hearts · €100k

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.
