At present, young norgens are competing with academy players. Nordeus may earn a lot in bidding wars of Norgens. So they may not care that managers are not interest to sign academy players. But encouraging managers to keep players promoting from academy can improve loyalty of managers to the game. They will be also less likelyt feel design of T11 is bad for making a useless feature of youth academy.
I suggest keeping some academy players in separate youth teams out of the 22 roster before they turned 18 or 20 years old. Managers can develop these players by putting resources like tokens or greens, observe if they are suitable for the team, and select suitable one to promote to senior teams. As teams still have 22 roster spots for senior players, ambitious managers can still spend tokens to buy 22 high quality players to compete while training young players. The youth team players may have qualities compatible to senior team but their qualities may be discounted if they arrange to play for senior team.
