Liverpool winger Jordon Ibe confirmed on Tuesday he had decided to play football for England rather than Nigeria.
The 19-year-old, who was approached by
Nigeria coach Sunday Oliseh to.....
switch his international allegiance to
his father’s country, is qualified to play for the Super Eagles until he
has made a competitive senior appearance for England.
“It was my choice and it feels the right choice,” Ibe told Liverpool’s website.
“I was born here and have played in the younger age groups. I want to take it up to the first team one day.”
The London-born forward played for
England Under-21 team against USA Under-23s side and then against Norway
, alongside his Liverpool teammate colleague Joe Gomez.
“It was great and I enjoyed myself,” Ibe said.
