England Youth International Defender Eager To Hear From Super Eagles Coach Rohr

England youth international defender Dominic Iorfa is eager to represent Nigeria if called up by coach Gernot Rohr ahead of their preparations for the World Cup 2018 in Russia.

Iorfa who is on loan to English Championship side Ipswich Town from fellow Championship team Wolverhampton Wanderers has represented England at various youth levels.

Two years ago he trained with the senior team of England as back up after the team were hit with several withdrawals while in camp for a friendly game.

However the defender who snubbed overtures from Nigeria as his father Dominic Iorfa Snr insist on his son reaching the age of 22 before deciding his future, has now declared for Nigeria.

” He is the age now , where a decision on his international future has to be made, and like his father said few months ago, he is ready to play for Nigeria, but he is yet to be called up”, a family source told Owngoalnigeria.com.

Here we go again. We are at that stage now. If the bold is true then let him wait for the next qualifiers to be invited.

What does he want to hear? Shebi his father said he should wait for the call of England. If he goes to the world cup, a lot of people will be praying for the downfall of the SEs.

:rotf: :rotf: IIRC, his dad said that he had to wait till he was 23 before he could decide to play for Nigeria or not.
We have been brainwashed by the Premier League that it's the best in the world. Nonsense. It's the best brand

He says that we are currently "brainwashed" into believing that the Premier League is the best competition in the world, and that we are now a long way off dominating the Champions League again.

I think Spain’s by far the best league.

According to reports, his father claimed he fell out of favor with Lamber after he decided to play for Nigeria :D

I'm going to go with "No"
For my sceptical Nigerian Friends : Pessimism is great because you are either always right or pleasantly surprised.
