Promising Arsenal Defender Bukayo Saka To Spark International Tug-Of-War Between England & Nigeria
Published: November 23, 2016.jpg)
One of the most promising talents at Arsenal’s Academy, Bukayo Saka, is set to spark an international tug-of-war between Nigeria and England in future.
Allnigeriasoccer.com understands that the English FA are way ahead of the NFF in the battle for the international future of the young defender as he has decided to represent the country instead of Nigeria, where his parents originally hail from.
Saka was an important member of England’s U15 squad before he made the step up to the U16 team.
The Gunners schoolboy was on target in August as England narrowly lost 2-1 to Romania in an international friendly, and made the squad for the Val-de-Marne Tournament in France last month.
If Saka continues to progress as expected, he could play for the Young Lions at next October’s Fifa U17 World Cup.
