Crystal Palace fullback Nathaniel Clyne sees a lot of himself in young teammates Tyrick Mitchell and Tayo Adaramola.

Like the pair, Clyne joined Crystal Palace a little later in his development. Mitchell moved at 16 when the Brentford Academy closed, Adaramola made the switch from playing in Ireland.

"It seems like a lot of full-backs have been breaking through the Palace Academy," Clyne told Palace's website. “We've been making a lot of good full-backs.

“You can see over there in the Academy a lot of money has been spent and it's taken the Academy to the next level. It's very good for young players to develop and it's great for the Academy. Hopefully we can get more and more talented young players coming through, and hopefully keeping them – not going to the let's say 'bigger' clubs. Hopefully that will help.

“I would have loved to have facilities like that. Credit to them and credit to Palace for building it."
