Daniel Nnodim has turned down the opportunity to play for Nigeria's national team, according to Score Nigeria. The decision leaves the Super Eagles technical crew to look at other options as they plan for future international fixtures.
The refusal comes at a time when the Nigerian setup is actively tracking players across various leagues to strengthen the senior squad. While team officials continue to reach out to talent eligible to wear the green and white, Nnodim has made his stance clear by turning away from the chance to commit his international career to Nigeria.
International allegiance decisions remain a major talking point for Nigerian football followers, especially with several dual-national footballers playing across top divisions globally. The Super Eagles have successfully integrated several overseas-born players in recent years, but they have also had to deal with instances where invited players preferred other pathways.
With Nnodim stepping aside from the senior squad, the national team selectors are expected to shift their focus back to players in camp and other prospective talents who are ready to feature for Nigeria in upcoming international windows.
