The Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) has confirmed that Ademola Lookman has finally gotten approval to switch his allegiance to the Super Eagles.

The Leicester City winger was born in England to Nigerian parents and is qualified for the national teams of both countries having represented the European country from under-19 to under-21 levels.

However, Lookman applied to FIFA to change his national allegiance to Nigeria last year and the application has now been approved by the world football’s governing body.

This has been affirmed by the NFF president Amaju Pinnick, who said Lookman has now been cleared by FIFA to wear the Nigerian jersey.

“I’m also delighted to announce that the work we’ve place in has guaranteed that on-loan Leicester City winger, Ademola Lookman’s application to change his nationality and represent Nigeria has been approved by FIFA,” Pinnick wrote on his official Twitter page.

“Lookman was part of England’s title win at the 2017 U-20 World Cup and brings a winning mentality to our team. I can hardly wait to see him make our Super Eagles that more formidable.”

The 24-year-old, whose full name is Ademola Lookman Olajade Alade Aylola Lookman, is currently on loan at Leicester from German Bundesliga side RB Leipzig.

Lookman helped England’s under-20 team win the 2017 FIFA U-20 World Cup in South Korea as he scored three goals in the tournament.

He could be included in the Nigeria squad which will face Ghana in the final round of the 2021 FIFA World Cup qualification next month.

another player,hope super eagles will utilize his talent,and hope he will give all he get too

And praying he won’t end up being another Victor Anichebe

24 years with this young face , but our players with face like Oshiomhole’s own would tell you they are 21yrs

I was looking at the lineup of Real Madrid vs Elche match & I saw one John Nwankwo in Elche. Checked player's details & felt awkward to see his country is Spain.
Wish all our "Nigerian" players will switch allegiance to Nigeria. That's what is currently working in favour of Senegal. Several of their AFCON players had to switch allegiance from France.
