Good for him. But I hope he doesn't come to Nigeria in the future with his British accent to hustle endorsements with the likes of Iwobi, Musa, Chukwueze and co. John Fashanu comes to mind in this regard. If he does, the thunder wey wire am go pass 100000 volts. angry

God will bless Fikayo Tomori for taking control of his own future. Regardless of what happens an England career provides better opportunities than a Nigeria one.

Nigeria has no honor. The ppl and fans are great but the football authorities and admin are trash. End of the day it's not about whether ppl like u or not that'll prevent u guys from getting stuck at airports or that will ensure that the best regardless of tribe or class are fielded.

Legends die every now and then and are swept under the carpet. No regard for them. They are turned to terminally ill beggars before our very eyes.

English ppl are of Germanic lineage but it doesn't mean that some third rate Anglo will be picked over Tomori or Abraham or Sterling etc. That is the real integrity and it is very commendable.

Most of us on here making noise will play for England. That's fact.
Zaha that is hot now ran away from england after seeing that third rate players are ahead of him

They told u that they regret playing for their country of choice? On what platform did u read their final regret epistles?

There are risks involved with everything, but u have to be big on self deceit to tell me that playing for Nigeria removes these risks. And then u have to be a bit more involved in delusional jingoism to tell me or anyobody that Nigeria doesn't add to the risks of a national football career and further complicate basic things that you wouldn't face in Europe or N. America for the case of Fikayo Tomori.

Efe is saying nonsense!

He wasn't born in England but Canada.

He didn't '' internationalise'' FIKAYO into Fikky. He will definitely know his Nigeria roots.

Ok fair enough. Just as long as we dont act like Naija doesnt deserve these snubs. These dides have to think about their own personal prospects. Not fake love from Naija.

I hate when I take out time to read a story and it doesn’t correlate with the headline. I am yet to see the revelation in this whole story. You only told us he didn’t associate with his NIGERIAN root, the WHY is missing. Why?

Useless story and useless OP

Talking about Nigerian players not proud of their country.... The question should be is Nigeria even proud of the players?

A lot of Nigerians currently living here are not proud of Nigeria and we can't blame them.

Allow him rest jor



What does Nigeria has to offer him?
As Isaac Promise die now, has NFF even released a statement?


NIGERIA had done nothing for him

He stands to lose nothing abandoning Nigeria...

At least wherever he is playing, his allowances and match bonuses will be paid swiftly. He wouldn't get embarrassed at the airport because some circus of clowns called NFF didn't sort their flight.


Thumbs up Tomori, you did the right thing
