PSV Eindhoven head of youth development Ernest Faber has praised Everton chief Marcel Brands for his work at the Dutch giants.
Highly-rated teenagers Mohammed Ihattaren, Cody Gakpo and Michal Sadilek are all in-and-around manager Mark Van Bommel's squad with PSV topping the Eredivisie.
“There has always been attention to the youth and that is even more pronounced by Marcel Brands," Faber told De Telegraaf.
“I think we have built up a nice culture as a training club.
“We train our own players who actually become a basic player and eventually win championships. Because that's what it's all about in top sport."
