Ojugo Signals Interest in Playing for Nigeria

Fulham youth midfielder Tyrell Ojugo has expressed his readiness to represent Nigeria, saying he is willing to wear the country’s colours. The left-footed teenager, eligible for the Golden Eaglets through his father, is also qualified for England but has shown strong interest in Nigeria. A composed and intelligent central midfielder, he has captained Fulham’s U15s this season and is admired for his calmness, sharp passing and ability to break lines. Football runs in his family, with his brother Thierry at AFC Wimbledon U16s. Ojugo hopes to follow Fulham-linked stars like Alex Iwobi, Ola Aina and Calvin Bassey.
