In fact, there must be discrimination, especially the media will make a big fuss. However, the definition of "home country" is really broad. For fans, there is generally no discrimination.

For this phenomenon, it actually reflects the imbalance in the development of leagues in various countries.

The first point of imbalance is reflected in Arsenal: Ligue 1 and other leagues are cheap (even extremely low), Premier League players are too expensive, and the salary requirements are worlds apart. As a result, Wenger likes to buy people in France and other places. In addition, Arsenal's financial difficulties make it necessary for Wenger to adopt a younger strategy, so the lack of local Arsenal players will be so obvious.

The second point of imbalance is reflected in Inter Milan: the decline of Serie A. In fact, let alone Inter Milan, AC Milan, Juventus and other teams are actually full of foreign aid, but the problem is not as serious as Inter Milan. This reflects that the youth training in Serie A is a failure, especially the giants don't pay attention to training new people. After all, Serie A has declined, and the giants need to go to the Champions League to maintain their finances and competitiveness. And to fight in the Champions League, of course, depends on some finished products, because there is really no time to slowly cultivate new people. See how serious it is that AC Milan can't enter the Champions League in one season? This is completely understandable.

As for discrimination, it is inevitable. Especially if the media don't make a fuss. However, this is actually nothing. For fans, the most important thing is to bring results.
