Stephen Keshi has revealed that he has held discussions with Standard Liege’s striker Imoh Ezekiel and he is keen to play for the Super Eagles.
The coach of the Nigerian senior team, was speaking from his base in the USA on Monday, where he debunked the rumours that Ezekiel was still interested in playing for Belgium.
“There is no iota of truth that Ezekiel is contemplating dumping Nigeria for Belgium, he is a Nigerian and like most Nigerians is eager to represent his country,” Keshi said.
“I have been in constant touch with him and he has assured me that he will be available for us and we hope that he will do well for the country.”
The 20-year-old is among the players Keshi has invited for the friendly match against Mexico on March 5 in Atlanta, US.
