I was playing a long running career with Ajax and didn't have any real goals left in 2036 when I got a news message saying i had 28 players trained at my club.
I decided to finally do something I had always wanted to try; Win the Champions Cup with a homegrown squad (trained at club). With pain in my heart I sold all my players not trained at the club. I had only one young left back, but no left defenders trained at my club good enough for my squad to buy back so I had to retrain my reserve right back to left back. My right back is actually a central defender but he can play there so he will do.
My talented goalie is not trained at club yet, but I didn't want to buy back an expensive old goalkeeper so I just let that one slide.

After I made 184M on transfers and didn't spend anything, I got this news message;

Usually I spread my transfer in- and outcome more over the whole year. I had gotten this message before on a different save, also after a lot of transfer income. I wonder if the transfer income and investment are related, since they are in the same amount.

With my fully homegrown squad wages were very low;

Eventually my reserve right back retrained to left back;http://i1153.photobucket.com/albums/...TeamReport.png
My squad still dominated their games, but did not score as many goals as before. I still won most of my games, only losing twice (Lyon away in group phase and FC Twente away) and eventually end up winning the treble, beating Juve in the final and rivals Feyenoord in the semis. In total my homegrown team won all six prizes this season. I must say it felt extra good since the team was fully homegrown (minus a young goalie).

Does anyone have similar stories of long running careers at one club or a homegrown squad, like maybe a squad consisting only of own youth recruitment players or something like that?
Cheers!
