Telstar coach Andries Jonker has warned Dutch teens against moving to England.
The former Arsenal academy chief is critical of the system in place in England.
Jonker told FOX Sport: "The road through England is not the road. In the interest of their development, youth players should not do that. You go there in an Under-18 competition, which is divided into Northern and Southern England.
"In the north, Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool play against each other. In the south Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur. So you don't play with and against the best clubs, that's a problem. In addition, the best talents go with the Under-23s. But a 16-year-old boy who plays against 22-year-old guys with Premier League experience is not the solution either.
"So those competitions there, they don't function for those guys to develop."
