Nigeria make approach for Everton star

The Nigeria FA are reportedly attempting to get Ademola Lookman to commit his international future to them and should he do so, he may achieve his first national team call up as early as next month.

Though Lookman has represented England at youth level, he remains eligible to represent Nigeria as his parents are of Nigerian heritage.

Lookman has played three games for the England national team and scored one goal.

Considering that he will be of high probability to make the Three Lions first team in the near future and also because he was born in England and spent his entire life there, he may opt to represent England.

However, Nigeria boss Gerard Rohr will visit Lookman in the coming weeks after Lookman’s representatives held talks with the Nigerian FA last month. We will likely hear the choice of Lookman over the next few weeks.  At this stage, nobody but the player can decide.
