Former Nigeria U17 invitee Prince Adegoke has accepted an invitation to be a part of the U18 squad of England for their games against Wales on Monday.
Although he will still remain eligible for Nigeria as the game is a friendly game. His decision to honour the call up confirms a report by Owngoalnigeria.com a month ago which was played down by his father.
The Nigerian website had reported that the teen shot stopper who recently signed professional terms with Chelsea and have been a part of their first team training is having a rethink over his decision to play for Nigeria.
He turned down the invitation which according to the website was because he was told he will be coming on trails and not a part of the squad for the 2019 Under-17 World Cup. A move which didn’t go down well with his camp.
Now he has accepted a late invitation to join the English U18 team which might see him decide to focus on the team at least for now but he could still switch to Nigeria if he fails to make grade or didn’t play for the first team in a competitive game.
