Ince - Tom to concentrate on Premier League

Paul Ince explains Tom's decision to pull out of the England Under-21 squad, saying his son would like to concentrate on making a career in the Premier League.

Speaking on The Fantasy Football Club, Ince said: "He has just felt that at 23 years of age he has been to an U21 championship with Steve Bruce and he's had a stop-start year.

"He's been to Hull, been to Forest, he's not playing well for Derby, and he feels he needs to have a good season next year and hit the ground running.

"He's made a decision for the benefit of his football career."
