Enahoro-Marcus Open to Nigeria Call-Up Ahead of U20 World Cup

Posted : 06 June 2025

Liverpool-based Nigerian teenager Louis Enahoro-Marcus has expressed his willingness to represent Nigeria at the international level, even as Flying Eagles coaches are yet to reach out ahead of the 2025 FIFA U20 World Cup.

Born in Benin City but raised in the United Kingdom, the 18-year-old defender is one of several diaspora talents eligible to play for Nigeria. Enahoro-Marcus has made notable progress in Liverpool’s youth system and has also featured for England at junior levels. Despite that, he has made it clear that he remains open to representing his country of heritage.

“I’d love to represent Nigeria. I’m proud of my roots,” he said in a recent interview. “If the call comes, I’ll be ready.”

So far, there has been no formal approach from Nigeria’s U20 coaching staff, even as preparations continue for the 2025 FIFA U20 World Cup. Enahoro-Marcus’s interest adds to the growing list of young, foreign-based Nigerians eager to commit to the national team—an opportunity the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) may want to explore as it looks to strengthen youth squads with global talent.

The Flying Eagles have historically benefited from dual-national players, and with the next U20 World Cup cycle underway, the inclusion of top-performing diaspora athletes like Enahoro-Marcus could provide a competitive edge.

As Nigerian football continues to connect with its global talent pool, eyes will be on whether the NFF can secure commitments from players like Enahoro-Marcus before other national teams do.
