Four Highly-Rated Nigerian Youngsters Receive England Call-Ups

Head coach Neil Dewsnip has invited three players of Nigerian descent to England Under-18s squad for a mini-tournament next month.

 Tolaji Bola (Arsenal) and Dennis Adeniran (Fulham) are joined in the squad by the highly-rated Manchester City defender Ahogrenashinme Kigbu.

The Nigerian trio will be hoping to be involved when the Young Lions tackle Italy at the Highbury Stadium, Fleetwood on September 1, and the game with Israel at the Globe Arena, Morecambe four days later.

England U19 coach Keith Downing has named Fulham midfielder Adetayo Edun in his 23-man roster for upcoming games against Netherlands (September 1) and Belgium (September 4).

The 18-year-old previously represented England at Under-17 and Under-18 level.
