Manchester City defender, Nedum Onuoha, would be open to
the idea of playing for Nigeria, according to sources close
to the player.
Onuoha, whose full names are Chinedum Onuoha, was born in
Warri, Nigeria to Nigerian parents.
He qualifies to represent his country of birth despite having
made 14 appearances for England at Under-21 level.
With Everton striker Victor Anichebe having made a successful
debut for Nigeria, it is understood that Onuoha will not rule
out the possibility of playing international football for
Nigeria at senior level.
“Nedum is not ruling out anything yet at this stage
of his career, but apparently, he's open to the idea of playing
for Nigeria,” KickOffNigeria.com was informed.
Onuoha is currently out for the season after dislocating his
shoulder playing for Manchester City against Chelsea.
