Phillip Schofield has praised 'amazing' footballer Jake Daniels after he came out as gay.
The 17-year-old Blackpool striker is the first British male footballer to come out publicly since Justin Fashanu, and he says he hopes that his decision to go public about his sexuality will encourage others from within the game who are hesitant to do the same.
Discussing Jake's statement on Tuesday's episode of This Morning, father-of-two Phillip shared his hopes for the young sports star.
