Lecce’s talented left-back, Patrick Dorgu, is at a crossroads in his international career, with the possibility of representing either Denmark or Nigeria on the horizon. Born in Denmark to Nigerian parents, Dorgu has the unique opportunity to choose between the country of his birth and his ancestral homeland.
Having already made a competitive debut for Denmark’s youth team, Dorgu is currently cap-tied to the European nation. However, the prospect of playing for Nigeria at the senior level remains a tantalizing possibility for the young defender.
As he looks ahead to the 2024 European Championship, Dorgu remains focused on his immediate goals, including representing Denmark in the prestigious tournament. When asked about his international future, Dorgu expressed his dream of playing for his country but remained open to the possibilities that lie ahead.
In a recent interview with Bold, Dorgu shared his thoughts on the matter, stating, “I haven’t thought about that. Everyone dreams of being able to represent their country. I was born in Denmark and have African roots, and right now I haven’t thought about having to make a choice. I just play football and let it come with time.”
With his talent and potential evident for all to see, Patrick Dorgu’s international future is certainly one to watch. Whether he ultimately decides to don the colors of Denmark or Nigeria, one thing is certain – his journey is just beginning, and the world is eagerly watching to see where it will take him.
