Nigeria Ahead Of England In Race For Crystal Palace Whizkid Dubbed The New Lukaku

Crystal Palace wonderkid Ademola Ola-Adebomi is set to spark an international tug-of-war between Nigeria and England on the back of his impressive displays for the youth teams of the Eagles.

Born in London fourteen years ago, Ola-Adebomi can turn out for Nigeria's youth teams through his parents.

With the Golden Eaglets coaching staff on the lookout for foreign-born players that can beef up the squad ahead of the 2019 Africa U17 Cup of Nations qualifiers, he might be handed an invitation to link up with the team.

''Ola-Adebomi plays for Crystal Palace U14s and is eligible to plays for England and Nigeria but has said he would really like to play for Nigeria,'' Darren of football-wonderkids.co.uk  told allnigeriasoccer.com.

''He plays like Manchester United striker Romelu Lukaku. He is big, powerful, fast and left footed.

''He also has a good range of passing and likes to scored long-range goals.''

Ademola Ola-Adebomi started his career at Crystal Palace as an eight year old and is in line to pen a scholarship deal with the club when he turns 16.
