Dominic solanke and Josh onomah should be watched very closely by the NFF.
Especially solanke. Kid is a goal scoring prodigy. Chelsea begging him to sign a new contract but he turned them down.

Playing for England under 20 doesn't mean they won't be eligible to play for Nigeria senior team. Victor Moses, Alex iwobi and akpom all played for England earlier in their careers but still came back. Relax dear, dem dey epp us train dem
Victor Moses is the one that got away,the Brits knowing fully well how he became a British citizen thought he will never forgive Nigeria so they dilly dallyed on him before Nigeria scooped him,your last name also plays a major factor if it isn't English then your chances are a lot slimmer except you are a phenom like a Dele Alli,whose last name will fool the British Muslims into feeling a sense of inclusion that a muslim plays for the National team. All those other Nigerian names no more than 5 caps to end your international career,but you don't blame them it is youthful exuberance,same thing just happened to Zaha he had to shift allegiance to Cote D'Voire.

You will have better playing time in representing Nigeria. Moses, Shola Ameobi etc. Tell me a Nigerian that opted to play for England that has had 10caps? Besides Dele Alli?

Dele alli is more British than Nigerian his father is the only thing that connects him to 9ja

Have u noticed how he changed the name ALLI on his shirt to DELE.

He doesn't feel any connection with the name ALLI (He actually said that)

His grand father is a Nigerian sailor who left his roots in the Liverpool Area,Barkley had a media scandal with the sun newspaper last month when a sun newspaper bigot journalist made some raciial derugatory words in a press column about grand pops and everton fc banned the sun newspaper from their training facilities and labeled them "personna non grata".

Ross Barkley
99% of football fans had no idea Ross Barkley had a Nigerian grandfather. NFA didn't even bother much about him coz he'd never accept to play for Nigeria.

I'm especially happy Nedum Onuoha never got the chance to get a senior cap for any national team,including the England he foolishly sided when Nigeria came calling. Good riddance.

Let the go and represent England it's their business Nigeria don't really need them. One thing I'm sure is this under 20 will be their last appearance for England it's bit a curse we all know how yseless England FA are.

And by the way it's better they stop playing soccer than to represent England because England can never and will never win any major trophy. Every England footballer always end their profile as a looser.

dele is actually the only nigerian/yoruba name there.
Alli is arab name.

I agreed he doesn't have any connection with nigeria like most other nigerians representing there cos he said his father abandoned them when he was little.

Fikayo Tomori is Canadian.

When did he switch nationality?

Anyway, Tomori, Lookman, and Solanke are the best prospects.

Sheyi Ojo used to be decent and he was the next Dele Alli, but I don't know what happened to him.
