“I’ve definitely got the quality to be in the England squad. Every player’s concentration has to be on getting to the World Cup this winter — and that’s my goal,” he told the Sun.
“I knew, because I was playing in the Championship, that it wasn’t going to be possible to get a call-up but it’s definitely possible now.
“My ambition this season had to be just to play every week for Fulham and get them back into the Premier League.”

Goodluck lad, Nigeria has them aplenty.
It is purely slave mentality and he will never be missed since it his choice.
The fact is that he is better than all we have in that department for now… However, what he still harbours is a boyish dream.
Even if he is better than Harry Maguire, John Stones and other native-born britions he won’t play ahead of them. England have not eased-up like France yet.
Fikayo Tomori and Tosin Adarabioyo won’t be at Qatar. Specifically Tomori, has just been used and he knows it. Tammy Abraham might marginally make the squad. Yet, even for him, it’s 49.9% chance. A lot of Nigeria foreign-borns suffer from identity crisis.
The Senegalese boys have more pride in their roots than our boys.
I disagreed with you on that bro, as we usually have English born Nigerians , we normally too have mainly French born Senegalese, non of these players will ever chose to play for Nigeria if they have the chance to play for England, they all decide to play for Nigeria cos no chance for them in England. Do you thing all these Senegalese players will chose Senegal if they have the chance to play for France ? I doubt it
I will see it from a different angle. It is possibke the nfg hasn’t thought it fit to invite the young boy. On that note, I will suggest the SE coach, Salisu to see the possibility of adding Adarabioyo to the team and if possible for the next month friendly in the USA.
Not qualifying for world is causing this, adarabioyo and other better nija born players in abroad yet to play would have consider to play for if were to be going to the world cup
