Young Chelsea defender Fikayo Tomori is open to the idea of representing the senior national team of Nigeria at senior level despite his present status as a youth international for England.
Nigeria Football Federation ( NFF) are yet to formally hold talks with the 21 year old who won the U20 World Youth Championship with England two years ago but they have sounded out his representatives about a switch to Nigeria.
Back at Chelsea after a productive loan spell with English Championship side Derby County, Tomori feel he can have a better chance of playing international football at a high level with Nigeria than with England.
His decision is nothing different from RB Leipzig new signing Ademola Lookman who is also open to the idea of playing for Nigeria who approached last year but he demanded for more time to make up his mind about the switch.
Lookman is now convinced that his international future is best with the senior national team of Nigeria and will inform the Nigeria Football Federation to begin the process of his international switch when he is fully settled in his new surrounding in Germany.
