A question about vocabulary
Hi everyone, I have a question about vocabulary. I want to talk about nationality difference. For example: Both Rashford and Aguero are now playing in Premier League. But as Rashford is an England, I would like to mention him as a "domestic player", and Aguero as a "foreign player". Am I using those words in a right way? Please help me with this question. Thank you so much.

In sports they usually talk about a "home team" and a "visiting team" or "away team".
Hope this helps. 😉

Yes, 'domestic' would work. I'm not sure how natural it is. It would be clearer to say "English" or "British", or use "British national" as a noun.
"Foreign" is OK.
