How do the costs compare of bringing a player through the academy

and into the first team (including say 2 seasons on loan) to that of purchasing an English born player (e.g. Zaha) ready for the 1st team at Prem league level? I can't see the first being more expensive although the inherent risk is much higher I guess.
