England-born Nigerian striker, Tammy Abraham has finally dumped Nigeria for England as the country to represent in his international career.

Abraham, who had represented England in the youthful competitions still had the exclusive right to choose which country to play as he not played for any senior team.

President of the Nigeria Football Federation, Amaju Pinnick in July advised the Chelsea forward to choose the Super Eagles as he will have opportunity of regular playing time in the team.

Abraham’s international future remains a subject of discussion among pundits and coaches due to his eligibility to represent either Nigeria or England.

He has played for England in two friendly matches against Germany and Brazil in 2017 but he is still eligible to represent the Super Eagles of Nigeria in the future.

But the Telegraph reported that Abraham has decided to remain committed to his country of birth, England.

Abraham was not called up into the squad that will face Bulgaria and Kosovo on September 7 and 10 respectively in the Euro 2020 qualifier.
