Nigeria are currently leading the race in the battle for the international future of 17 year old new Hoffenheim signing Midhat Bajric despite Bosnia making contact with the left footed central defender who moved to Hoffenheim from Nuremburg three weeks ago said his immediate focus is representing Nigeria at the U20 level. I am eligible to play for Nigeria, Croatia and also Bosnia. For now only Bosnia have contacted my agent over a possible invitation nothing yet from Nigeria or Croatia “, Bajric My dream has always been to represent Nigeria and some people have assured me that the coach of the U20s is watching me but no contact yet with my agent. I know a good performance with Hoffenheim will help my case a lot”, he remarked. Speaking on his links to Nigeria, the defender who has a Croatian father and a German mother who has Nigerian links cleared the air on his eligibility to feature for Nigeria at international. My grandfather is a full blooded Nigerian while my mother named Odion Abieba is a half Nigerian married to my Croatian father, who has links with Bosnia. The options are much but Nigeria is top priority for now”, he concluded.

Highly rated Bayern Munich teen left back Kimberly Ezekwem has left the Bundesliga giants for modest Bundesliga side SC Freiburg on a free transfer following the expiration of his contract with Bayern Munich. The 17 year old who is born to a German mother and a Nigerian father failed to agree fresh terms on a contract extension at Bayern Munich where he was a regular for their U17 last season in the Junior League. He signed a two year deal with Freiburg which will become official on the 1st of July and will run to the 30th of June 2020 three days ago, bringing to an end his two year stay at Bayern Munich. The promise of a step up to the first team at Freiburg lured him as he believe he might not get the same opportunity at Bayern due to their transfer policy. A left full back who is also comfortable as a central defender, if he makes the step up to the first team of Freiburg and gets to play in the Bundesliga, his international future will no doubt spark interest from both Germany and Nigeria.
