Inter Milan's Akanji Reveals Reasons for Choosing Switzerland Over Nigeria

Inter Milan defender, Manuel Akanji, explained his choice to represent Switzerland over Nigeria, citing his identification with his Nigerian roots but lack of time to visit. Akanji debuted for the Swiss senior team in 2018 and has since solidified his place.

Nigerian journalist Arinze Nonsochukwu expressed difficulty in convincing Akanji to play for Nigeria due to his success with Switzerland. Akanji's tattoo of an eagle symbolizes his Nigerian heritage.

Despite his connection to Nigeria, he remains committed to Switzerland.
