Dinamo Zagreb: The Most Underrated Academy in Europe

Winning 13 out of the last 14 Croatian top-flight league titles, Dinamo Zagreb have continually impressed since taking back the mantle as the Balkan nation’s top dogs in 2005.

Now regularly featuring in the Champions League group stages, the Croatian powerhouse have begun to force their way into the European elite, highlighted this season with their brilliant 4-0 triumph over Atalanta and two entertaining draws against Ukrainian champions Shakhtar Donetsk in the group stages.

With a real lack of money in the Hrvatski Telekom Prva Liga due to its smaller reputation, Dinamo have instead largely invested in their youth academy that now stands as one of the best in Europe.
