Liverpool younger, Jordon Ibe has committed his international future to England, according to Super Eagles of Nigeria head coach, Sunday Oliseh.
Coach Sunday Oliseh, has revealed that Liverpool forward Jordon Ibe, will not play for Nigeria. The Super Eagles manager, who travelled to England to discuss with the youngster, says the teenager has chosen to play for the Three Lions of England.
"Jordon Ibe’s family informed me by a telephone call, that he was giving priority to an England call-up. We wish them well," Oliseh tweeted.
The 19-year-old Liverpool winger received his first England Under-21 call-up earlier this month and Coach, Roy Hodgson could promote him to the Three Lions senior squad possibly even as early as next month, when England play their dead-rubber Euro 2016 qualifiers against Estonia and Lithuania.
Hodgson said of Ibe: "People play for the (England) Under-21s because they want to play for England. If we do call him up it won't be because we are worried about other nations."
