Udinese defender, Kingsley Ehizibue has expressed his desire to wear the green and white shirt of Nigeria.
Ehizibue, a right-back was born in Germany to Nigerian parents but was raised in the Netherlands.
The 27-year-old has earned one cap for the Netherlands at the U-21 level.
On 3, March 2020, the player was called up for Nigeria’s 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying fixture against Sierra Leone.
The match was later postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Ehizibue has been overlooked since then but he is determined to represent his fatherland.
“For real, it would be like making a dream come true because I used to watch Nigeria playing in the World Cup, so to wear that jersey was the goal for every kid,” he told Goal.
“So, I will do everything possible to make it happen. I’ve played with guys that represent the national team, in the Netherlands and Germany, and I’m so proud of them.”
