Levante winger Kareem Tunde is not in the immediate plans of the head coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Eric Chelle, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
Born in Barcelona, Catalonia to a Nigerian father and a Spanish mother he has made 11 appearances in the LaLiga, in what is his first season in the Spanish top flight.
A talk about international football has been mooted for the 20 year old, who is eligible for Nigeria and Spain but hasn’t been capped by any of the above mentioned countries.
Chelle made a check on him, but decided against handing him a call up in the immediate, and rather will allow him to continue to grow in the LaLiga until at least the end of the season.
Tunde is open to the idea of playing for Nigeria and will be hoping Levante stays up to further bolster his chances of getting a look in. They are presently 19th on the 20 team table. Four points away from safety.
