'Tosin Adarabioyo yet to decide his international allegiance' - UK Journalist
UK-based journalist, Ben Jacobs has disclosed that Chelsea defender Tosin Adarabioyo's international future remains undecided.
Adarabioyo set for Nigeria switch
Chelsea defender Tosin Adarabioyo is reportedly poised to switch his international allegiance to Nigeria’s Super Eagles.
The Manchester City academy graduate has made a mark as a Premier League regular with Fulham before joining Chelsea this summer. However, he is yet to receive a call-up to the England national team.
Although he has played 14 times for England’s youth teams at U16, U17, U18, and U19 levels, Adarabioyo has struggled to break into the senior squad, facing stiff competition from Gareth Southgate and Lee Carsley.
After initially declining the opportunity to represent Nigeria, Adarabioyo showed interest in joining the Super Eagles in 2020, and now, four years later, he seems poised to fulfil that ambition.
