Aspinall hopes to meet his famous fellow townsman one day. “I’ve never had the pleasure to meet the guy, he’s been brought up in Stockport probably five minutes from where I was brought up. But seriously you can’t compare me to Phil. He is unreal and a chap from Stockport making something of himself. Fair play to the guy and I’m sure in the near future we will cross paths'', he told Oche180.

The two-time World Championship semi-finalist hopes that Foden will also shine at the Euro 2020 this month. “I can’t wait for the Euros, I missed it last year. Unfortunately the PDC have decided to put on a tournament the same week as the Euros start.''

''I can’t wait and Phil can win it for us. I hope he does, it will be mint for England and Stockport'', Aspinall said.
