Barely 48 hours after FIFA approved his move to represent Nigeria, Leicester City winger, Ademola Lookman is eager to play for Super Eagles, BSNsports.com.ng can report.
After proper consultation and scrutiny, the World soccer governing body finally approved Lookman's switch of allegiance to Nigeria.
The energetic winger expressed his excitement over the approval through his social media handle and stated that he can't wait to put on the green white green of Nigeria.
“Delighted to announce that FIFA has approved my Nationality switch. Thank you for the warm welcome and I can’t wait to put on the Super Eagles shirt and represent the country," he said.
Lookman has represented Junior Three Lions of England at the U20 level and was part of the team that emerged World champion in FIFA U20 World in South Korea 2017.
If invited, Lookman might likely make his debut in the Qatar 2022 World Cup playoffs against Black Stars of Ghana.
