Former Super Eagles head coach and captain, Sunday Oliseh has said his son, Denzel will follow in his footsteps and represent Nigeria when the time is right.
The youngster is eligible to represent both Nigeria and Belgium because aside from having a Nigerian father, his mother is half Belgian and half Moroccan and there are speculations that he might fancy playing for the European nation.
However, when a Tweep asked the former Ajax midfielder which country his son will play for when he is old enough, he replied saying “Naija” and accompanied his post with emojis of thumbs up and prayer.
