On-loan Chelsea starlet Tammy Abraham has apparently agreed to play for Nigeria at senior international level despite winning nine Under 21 caps for England.
Nigerian Football Federation president Amaju Pinnick, who is a friend of the striker's father, has claimed that 19-year-old Abraham could play at next year's World Cup, should the Super Eagles qualify for Russia 2018.
Abraham was born in London but remains eligible to play for Nigeria due to his dad's nationality and having not yet won a first-team cap for England.
'I had a very honest and productive discussion with Tammy and his father last week,' said Pinnick.
