20 year old Levante winger Kareem Tunde is open and interested in talks on committing his international future to Nigeria ahead of Spain, OwnGoalNigeria.com can exclusively reveal.
Born in the Spanish city of Barcelona to a Nigerian father and a Spanish mother he is enjoying his debut season in the Spanish top division with seven games under his belt for Levante.
He is eligible to play international football for either Nigeria or Spain, but so far he hasn’t been capped at any level by both countries leaving his international future in the air.
Comfortable as a right or left winger, he has also shown his versatility by being able to play as a full back. He was once upon a time with the youth team of Spanish giants Barcelona.
Promoted from the youth team to the main team, his representative said although he is focused on establishing himself as a regular in the Spanish top flight he is however open to the idea of playing international football for Nigeria.
” We have not talked about it but Kareem won’t say no to the chance of playing for a top football nation like Nigeria since he is qualified to play for them. But like I said no approach has been made yet to the best of my knowledge, but he is surely going to love it”, the representative of the winger who has made six appearances this season in the league said.
