Stoke City Academy players on why UK players are going abroad

Jenny went to meet some of the Stoke City Academy players to see what they think about young British footballers going to clubs in Europe.

"It's definitely harder to get into the first teams now," one player told me.

"Sometimes I do worry," another player said.

When asked if going to clubs in Europe is something they'd do, "I would consider it" was largely the response.

"You've got more chance of becoming and having that dream of being a professional footballer," they said.
