Why do you say they seem to think they are English? They are English

It was to stop him playing for Jamaica.  I dont think he was ever eligible for Ireland

I assume HK also has a mother.

And she may be English.

If so, does she not get a say?

(Not commenting on Kane/his dad in particular, just using him as an example)

Jack has signed a new five year deal with Aston Villa. Looks like the big clubs weren't keen enough after all. Or maybe the price went over the top after his 15 mins. of fame in an England shirt.

Asked if he felt turning down a senior Republic of Ireland call-up now felt worthwhile, Grealish replied: “As I got older, I started playing obviously at Villa, in the first-team, I broke through.

“And there was a time when I thought: ‘obviously I am English, my parents were born in England, I was obviously born in England, so I feel English’.

“So yes, I obviously changed to England and since then I never looked back. I’ve enjoyed every moment that I’ve had here. And I wouldn’t be here today if I didn’t.”
