A longitudinal study of 47 players at a top Spanish academy used bone-age data to classify biological maturation, with career outcomes tracked 15 years later. Late maturers reached professional football at 30.8% vs. 5.6% for early maturers. Every player from the cohort competing in a top 5 European league at follow-up belonged to the late-maturing group. Biological maturation and relative age effect research are measuring the same selection error from different angles: academy and international selection systematically favors the physically advanced, at the cost of long-term development potential. mdpi.com/2411-5142/10/2…
