We can verify 7 club-trained players in the Willem II squad: Uriël van Aalst, Per van Loon, Karst de Leeuw, Siegert Baartmans, Kayen Scheepens, Amine Lachkar and Jens Mathijsen. Between them they have played 13% of Willem II's league minutes in 2026/27. 6 other squad players are not verifiable on our record.

• Virgil van Dijk · Liverpool · €9m
• Mattijs Branderhorst · Fortuna Sittard · €880k

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.
