Ray Wilkins has hit out at the unwillingness of Premier League clubs to give more opportunities to young English players.

In a passionate rant on talkSPORT, the former Chelsea, Manchester United and England star said he was amazed by the fact so many top-flight managers refuse to put their faith in homegrown talent.

Wilkins singled out one of his old clubs, Chelsea, for criticism, questioning why they spent £33million on 23-year-old Belgian forward Michy Batshuayi when they have 19-year-old England youth ace Tammy Abraham on their books.
