West Brom teenager Tyler Roberts reveals why youngsters are choosing Wales over England: 'It's always been about passion and pride'

West Brom striker Tyler Roberts has outlined the reasons why English-qualified youngsters commit themselves to Wales.

Gloucester-born Roberts has joined the likes of Liverpool forward Ben Woodburn, Chelsea's Cole DaSilva and highly-rated Exeter defender Ethan Ampadu amid claims that Wales are poaching English youngsters in their early teens.

Woodburn, 17, was in the senior squad for Wales' last game against the Republc of Ireland in March, while 16-year-old Ampadu joined the Liverpool youngster at a Portugal training camp this week ahead of the Dragons' next World Cup qualifier in Serbia on June 11.
