Born in the United States of America but raised in England, Landon Emenalo has already represented the above mentioned countries at youth levels but still remains eligible for Nigeria.
On loan to Scottish giants Celtic from English Premier League side Chelsea, the 18 year old is a left back like his father but can also play in central defence and in the midfield.
He made his professional debut for Celtic in the 7-1 win against Hearts, playing the final 30 minutes of the game. Family sources say he hasn’t slam the door on representing Nigeria.
Although he is in no rush to make a decision, meaning a call from Nigeria won’t be accepted in the immediate as he seeks to build his career at a higher level.
