Liverpool Midfielder Jones Confirms His Eligibility To Play For Nigeria, Backs Super Eagles To Win AFCON
Liverpool midfielder Cutis Jones has backed the Super Eagles of Nigeria to win tomorrow's Africa Cup of Nations final match against the host Cote d'Ivoire, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
The 22 year old has stepped up this season for the table toppers following the sale of the midfield duo of Jordan Henderson and Fabinho making a total of 16 appearances with one assists and one goal.
With Nigeria through to the AFCON final, Jones posted his message of goodwill to the Nigerian team telling them to do it for us, referring to himself as a Nigerian confirming reports that he is of Nigerian descent.
From our checks he has been following the team since the start of the tournament and just like many Nigerians posted his relief when they got past South Africa in the semi final via a 4-2 penalty shoot out win.
Jones is of Nigerian descent through his grandmother and has represented England at U21 level. Considering his recent performances, Jones could be called up to Gareth Southgate's squad for this summer's Euros.

In what position? At the age of 23? By next year's Euros (which he will not be a part of), he will be 24. His mates have already won 30 caps for their countries.
See e mouth like "he is going to play fo England." How many squads are England permitted?
Bellingham
Rice
Alexander-Arnold
Henderson
Philips
Gallagher
Palmer
Foden
Grealish
Madisson
Then you have the likes of:
Mount
Eberechi Eze
James Ward-Prowse
Loftus-Cheek
Willock
Longstaff
Ramsey
Smith-Rowe
Dewsbury-Hall
Skipp
Gibbs-White
Rico Lewis
Alex Scott
Morgan Rogers
Even his friend sef, Elliot.

If they want to play for the Super Eagles, they have the resources to get in contact with our FA and coaching staff to do so

"sources told us"
We have been brainwashed by the Premier League that it's the best in the world. Nonsense. It's the best brand
Roy Keane: ITV 02/25/14
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.
Gary Neville: Mirror: 12/23/14
I think Spain’s by far the best league.
Scholes. UK Guardian 9/6/16

I am still laughing at that fool Eze.
Guy could have really built a legacy with SE.
He would rather twerk to "God save the King" in meaningless matches.

Part of the fault lies with Pinnick. This boy attended a training camp with the SE in London and went to visit Pinnick in his London home.vancity eagle wrote: ↑Sun Feb 11, 2024 5:17 am I am still laughing at that fool Eze.

Those were missed opportunities and if the NFF President cannot convince a player to switch allegiance to Nigeria, who else can do it?
It’s a shame because down the line, he will realise the opportunities that he missed just like his predecessors like Agbonlahor, Ehiogu, Fashanu etc
I am happy

Re: Liverpool Midfielder Jones Confirms His Eligibility To Play For Nigeria, Backs Super Eagles To Win AFCON
I'd argue that the NFF President - at least that one - was the least likely to convince any player to switch. Eze's peers and footballers like Okocha and Kanu would have presented a more compelling narrative.Dammy wrote: ↑Sun Feb 11, 2024 9:39 amPart of the fault lies with Pinnick.

Guys, let’s be real. If this was 2022, post World Cup, fine. We are two years from the next one.
How many midfielders can England carry? In addition to the obvious supporting cast to Fosen, Mount, Bellingham and co, do you really think a competition squad can have Eze, Jones, Madueke? Two of those three will NEVER make the squad. Not for the Euros and not for the Mundial.
Lai lai!!

Funny enough, with Nathan Tella's progress in Bundesliga and how he destroyed the Championship last season, he is someone who may have had a chance to be selected for England - when you look at England's wingers.
