Middlesbrough's academy setup continues to break success records this season.
Others currently on the club's books to have played first team football for Boro include Brad Jones, Tony McMahon, Ross Turnbull, Matthew Bates, Jason Kennedy and Josh Walker.
Boro have produced more current England internationals at all levels than any other club. With Downing now a fixture in the full squad, Taylor, Wheater and Johnson have been in U21 action recently, while the likes of Hines, Walker, Jason Steele, Jonathan Franks, Nathan Porritt and Bruno Pilatos have appeared for the national side at junior levels.
