The chances of Dominic Solanke playing for the senior national team of Nigeria has been played down by his representative after he struck his eight league goal of the season in their 2-2 draw against Aston Villa over the weekend.
Solanke has represented England at virtually all youth levels before playing just one senior game for the team in 2017 making him eligible to play for the senior national team of Nigeria.
That idea is however not on the mind of the 26 year old who has seven league goals this season and one in the EFL Cup. He is still keeping his option open at international level hence no decision has been made in the immediate on it.
” You (Nigeria) have Osimhen, are you sure you need him ?”, his representative joked when OwnGoalNigeria.com sounded out the possiblity of having the forward in the Super Eagles team.
” Seriously speaking it is one thought that isn’t on the card at the moment but you never can tell. The option of playing for either nations is still there but a decision has been made. Ending the season on a high is the aim for now” , he rounded up saying.
