Ademola Lookman won the 2017 U20 World Cup with the England🇬🇧 but decided to switch allegiance to represent Nigeria🇳🇬 Senior Team.
The 26-year-old chose to represent Nigeria at the senior level through his parents and received approval from Fifa in February 2022, paving the way for his recent debut against Ghana in a World Cup qualifier.
"Both my parents are Nigerians, and I've always seen this [representing Nigeria] as a possibility. I came to Nigeria, frequently when I was much younger," Lookman told CafOnline.
"I am familiar with the people and have built up a family here, so the switch from England to Nigeria is not an unusual one for me. I am glad I made the switch."
