Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas is disappointed by the Brexit vote.

He is two years into his second spell in England and admits that he was surprised British team voted to end their allegiance with the EU.

"It's a very disappointing decision and I think very negative for many people," said Fabregas.

"Personally, I see it as a mistake. I didn't expect it, as I went to bed optimistic and woke up to this news.

"I think it's damaging for the Premier League. It'll be harder to sign players, the salaries will change if the pound gets close to the euro.

"It's a decision that will create many complications not just in football, but the daily lives and future of all people."
