Outgoing FA chairman Greg Dyke was disappointed with the performance of the senior national team in his three-year tenure.
Greg Dyke was not a supporter of Brexit, but he hopes it will help Premier League clubs put more trust in English youth.
Dyke has spent three years as FA chairman but is stepping down and, in an email, said he wanted to see more English players playing in the top flight, which he says is crucial to improving the fortunes of the national team.
England crashed out of Euro 2016 in shocking fashion as it suffered a 2-1 defeat to minnows Iceland in the round of 16.
