Good News!! FIFA Clears Ola Aina To Play For Super Eagles (Pictured)

The world football governing body, FIFA, has given Ola Aina the all-clear signal to represent Nigeria against the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon when both teams clash in the World Cup 2018 Qualifiers.

Aina who completed his switch from Chelsea to Hull City on loan applied to switch allegiance from England to Nigeria after representing England at various youth levels.

FIFA contacted England to transfer his nationality to Nigeria, but the English FA delayed the process and it cost Aina a spot in the Super Eagles team that ‎lost 0-2 to South Africa in the AFCON 2019 Qualifiers in Uyo.

However, England has submitted their own documents to FIFA, which was unable to rule on the application due to the rigours and demands of the recently concluded Confederations Cup played in Russia

According to Owngoal, a source at the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) disclosed that FIFA has given the green light for Aina to represent Nigeria, if he is called up by coach Gernot Rohr.

Rohr has long hinted that he wants the defender who can play conveniently across the back four to represent Nigeria as he believes he could be the solution to the full back woes troubling the team right now.
