Chelsea Defender Contemplates Switching Allegiance to Boost Nigeria's World Cup Hopes

Chelsea defender, Tosin Adarabioyo, born in London to Nigerian parents, is considering switching his international allegiance from England to Nigeria to boost the Super Eagles' chances in the 2026 World Cup playoffs. The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is actively scouting foreign-born players like Adarabioyo to strengthen the national team.

Adarabioyo's potential switch follows a trend of players like Ola Aina and Alex Iwobi opting to represent Nigeria over England, aiming to enhance the team's defensive capabilities.
