two same quality young players from my own academy

In my experience, both these players are relatively good in quality terms if they are close to 3* or 5* respectively. I also think the cost of 21T for the high quality one is also not high. There are more high quality academy player near the season end but their token price is usually 24T. 21T is a quite good offer for this academy player even if I don't choose to sign him unless my team is in financial crisis.

For the training results of them, I'm sorry first that I may not correctly interpret. If you trained them with "practice match" in high intensity and outcome is 50% skill progress, their training efficiency are not good even for a non-token academy player. For a real fast trainer, training outcome should be well above 100% skill progress.

I never found that two academy players appearing at the same time have similar training efficiency. Their training efficiency may varies but free-token one is still slower in training.

Edit: Actually I just signed about 3 or 4 academy players with tokens. So my experience may not be representative.
