Manchester United and Man City youth policy would be rocked by Brexit

An EU leave vote would stop Manchester City and Man Utd from competing with Real Madrid and Barcelona for top continental talent.

Stars like Brahim Diaz and Adnan Januzaj will be denied to City and United if the UK votes Brexit

And rightly so. Our golden age groups, the 13s, 14s, 16s etc are all English and they're battering everyone anyway.

Pretty ridiculous.

That sounds like good news all round for English football

Likes of Brahim top talent but will likely block pathway for other English lads in the academy coming through!

A talent like Brahim deserves to be in any academy anywhere regardless of nationality. He raises the bar for the English lads so a talent like him not being around is not a good thing for English football.

Brahim would block the progress of absolutely anybody anywhere in the world, he is the real deal. We are very lucky to have him.

This would seriously hamstring English sides when compared to their European counterparts. City would be restricted in who they could attract to their academy whereas the likes of Barca, Real etc can still bring in anyone from around Europe. With the squad restrictions as they currently are we'd find it more difficult to field a top quality side, and the quality of our academy graduates would surely suffer if we are restricted in who we can actually bring to the academy in the first place.
