Fikayo Tomori, one of Chelsea's wonder kids has revealed he is ready to play for Nigeria.
The Chelsea Academy graduate is a national of three countries and is eligible to play for any of them.
Tomori whose root is traced to Nigeria was born in Canada, he lives in England and his parents are from Nigeria, therefore, making him a citizen of three nationalities.
He said, “I am a citizen of all three (countries ) so we ’ ll see. I was born in Canada and lived there about seven or eight months old. My family is Nigerian, obviously, I live in England.
“It’ s nice to have that. I can’t play Under – 21 football anymore so the last international break I didn’t get called up to anyone. Next one maybe we’ll see,”
Tomori currently plays for England where he lives at the U-21 level.
During last year's Championship, Tomori played for derby County under the current Chelsea manager, Frank Lampard.
He, however, made it known that he has not committed his international future to any of the countries.
