Arsenal-owned goalkeeper faces dilemma: England or Nigeria national teams

Posted : 22 May 2024

Wrexham goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo remains undecided about whether to play for England or Nigeria at the international level.


Okonkwo's impressive performances last season helped Wrexham gain promotion to League One, with 14 clean sheets in 36 games.


While Okonkwo has represented England at youth level due to being born in London to Nigerian parents, he is eligible to switch to Nigeria's Super Eagles as he hasn't played for the English senior team.


Despite the instability in Nigeria's goalkeeping position, Okonkwo has not publicly expressed his willingness to represent Nigeria internationally, still hoping for a call-up from England.


In a recent interview, Okonkwo expressed his ambition to play at the international level but admitted he hasn't made a decision between England and Nigeria yet.


While many players with dual nationality often see the Super Eagles as a secondary option, Okonkwo remains open to representing Nigeria if his ambitions to play for England don't materialize.


Okonkwo's future at Arsenal is uncertain as he is set to leave the club when his contract expires, with a move to Wrexham expected by the end of May.
