Jack Wilshere's belief that only English-born players should turn out for the national team was branded "a bit extreme" by FA chairman Greg Dyke on Wednesday.
Arsenal midfielder Wilshere has criticized the fact Manchester United's Adnan Januzaj, who was born in Belgium to Kosovar-Albanian parents, could, under FIFA rules, eventually represent England through residency.
"It is an issue we need to look at," Dyke said on the fringes of a Leaders in Football business conference at Stamford Bridge.
