Saka faces dilemma over International career

Arsenal starlet, Bukayo Saka Arsenal starlet, Bukayo Saka has said he is yet to decide on whether he would play for the Super Eagles of Nigeria or the Three Lions of England. 

The 18-year-old star has represented England at youth level and has been pushing for inclusion in the Under-21 squad, but remains eligible to play for Nigeria though, he is yet to receive a call-up. In an interview with Sky Sports News, Saka said he will consult with his family members at the right time to choose either Nigeria or England. 

“It’s a tough choice. I’m happy to have represented England at the youth level but I’m also proud of my Nigerian heritage. 

“We haven’t been picked by any team so it’s about staying humble and when the time comes we’ll make the decision,” he said. 

It will be recalled the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) president Amaju Pinnick recently in an Instagram Live chat said though there are a number of qualified players doing well for the Super Eagles the door is always open for Saka if he desires to play for the country.
