My Mum Would Be Happy If I Play For Nigeria —Premier League Star Striker
Luton Town striker, Elijah Adebayo, has said his mum would be happy if he decides to play for Nigeria’s Super Eagles.
Adebayo was born in Brent, England, but has never made any appearance at international level.
The 26-year-old has been impressive for relegation battlers, Luton who are on 20 points and just one point away from the relegation zone.
He has netted nine goals in 23 Premier League games this season.
Speaking on where his international future lies, the striker revealed:“I would like to play for Nigeria,” Adebayo told The Times.
“It would make my mum happy, make her proud. That’s something we’ve spoken about.
“Playing for England? It would be a case of whichever comes first. My mum would be proud if I played for Nigeria or England, but Nigeria especially.”
If he eventually switch his allegiance to play for Nigeria, Adebayo would follow them path taken by the likes of Ola Aina, Semi Ajayi, Calvin Bassey, William Troost-Ekong, Ademola Lookman and Leon Balogun.
