Nigerian Federation Target Jordan Torunarigha Poised To Debut For Germany U21
Published: March 16, 2018
Nigeria Football Federation target Jordan Torunarigha is set to make his international debut for Germany U21s with Head Coach Stefan Kuntz naming the Hertha BSC starlet on the roster for the first two games of 2018.
Torunarigha had been called up to that age group for the European U21 Championship qualifiers against Azerbaijan and Israel in November 2017 but was an unused substitute in both games.
The central defender is part of a 23-man party that will tackle Israel (March 22) and Kosovo (March 27).
Born in Chemnitz, Germany, he made his debut for Germany's youth teams as the U18s beat United States 3-2 at Estadio Municipal de Marbella, Marbella in a friendly in December 2014.
And since then Torunarigha has racked up 16 appearances for Germany across all levels, including three games at the 2017 Fifa U20 World Cup.
SpVgg Unterhaching U 19 striker Karim Adeyemi has been called up to Germany U16s for the international matches against Italy on 24 and 26 March 2018.
Manchester City attacking midfielder Felix Nmecha has received call-ups from German and English FAs to represent the U18 teams.
