Do sons come through youth acadamies?


Recommended Posts

Here is a welsh newgen, Nicky Legg. I spotted his name in my news items due to his unsual surname and it immediately made me think of Andy Legg, the ex-Cardiff and Peterborough player who is now manager of Llanelli. Now, Nicky Legg came through the academy at United in 2016; Andy Legg had retired from the game by this point and was never a coach at Man United but Nicky Legg has him listed as a favoured person. It might be an obvious question, but can sons of managers come through the game then? I do remember reading about it some 4-5 years ago but I don't think it was ever confirmed and this is the first I have ever seen of this.

I'd love for my own son to come through an academy if possible...

Legg isn't that uncommon a surname. But it does look like this guy is Andy Legg's son.

I'm not saying there aren't people with that name; the name just stuck out because I haven't often seen or heard it. I checked my save file's DB and he's the only person with the surname Legg. Clegg was far more common.
