Tosin Adarabioyo’s international future remains a topical issue of discussion, especially as the final international window of 2024 takes centre stage.

Iwobi also suggested that the former Manchester City youngster may not be fully ready to commit to the Super Eagles.

In a recent interview, Troost-Ekong shared a message for Adarabioyo and other dual-nationality players who are still undecided about representing Nigeria.
“There are so many rewards in playing for Nigeria, not only from a game perspective,” Troost-Ekong said as captured by Soccernet.
“It means so much to play for the Super Eagles when you’re Nigerian, even if you were born outside the country because the people love football so much.”
He emphasised the unmatched connection with Nigerian fans, adding,
“It’s a different feeling than playing for the Netherlands or England. When the team does well, you see how much the fans celebrate the players. There’s no feeling like it. All the greatest moments in my career have been with the Nigerian national team.”
Adarabioyo has often embraced his Nigerian heritage, frequently sharing posts related to his roots on social media.
