Nigeria, England and Canada are in a three-way battle for the services of Chelsea’s Fikayo Tomori, after his impressive displays for the club.
Tomori, who was born in Canada to Nigerian parents, but the family moved to Gravesend when he was a baby, had played for Canada’s Under 20 team and for England’s Under 20 and Under 21 teams.
As with Tammy Abraham, Nigeria are pressing hard to recruit two of Chelsea’s prodigy. Abraham has played for the England senior team but has yet to play in a competitive match and so can switch nationalities under FIFA rules.
