Harry Redknapp says English managers don’t get the opportunities they deserve in the Premier League.

The 70-year-old, who guided Birmingham City to Championship safety on Sunday, blames the amount of foreign owners in the domestic game.

"Every time a club comes to sell, the only money that’s around is foreign money, and they come in and they want to bring people in, they’ve heard of famous managers from abroad or somewhere and they go and give them the job," he said.

It is 25 years since an English manager led a side to the league title as Howard Wilkinson’s Leeds United won the old First Division.

Redknapp, who has managed five clubs in the Premier League, said of English managers: “They work their socks off, get their coaching badges, which takes about three years to do, and then when the jobs come along they’re never mentioned.”
