Sweden National Team manager, Erik Hamrén has hinted that he will hand an invitation to Kennedy Igboananike after the forward acquired a Swedish passport on Wednesday.

“It is positive. Then he has a number that he competes with, especially the players who are based in Europe. But it feels really positive that we get another player that I think is of high Premier League class,” Erik Hamren said to the electronic edition of Expressen.

 “He scored a number of spectacular goals for AIK. I am delighted to have access to more players, especially since we lost a couple of players to other countries. I am pleased that we can bring in a few players.”

Despite representing the Under 20 National Team (Flying Eagles) in the past, Kennedy Igboananike could pledge his international future to Sweden.

He told the Swedish daily : “I hope but right now it is too early. We will see in the future. But certainly.”

Kennedy Igboananike was a big hit for AIK last season, netting 14 goals in 29 matches to finish as the second highest goalscorer in the Premier League.
