He joined Spurs at 16 so I wouldn't really class him as one who has come up through the youth ranks.

what's your cut off age?
because a load of players who we think of as being products of one team won't be.

I'd say sixteen. I'm aware that a lot of players shift around at 16 when the 90 minute distance rules end (including a lot from overseas) but in my view academy products are those who were there from young.
