The Nigeria Football Federation ( NFF) have shelved the idea of approaching Crystal Palace new signing Ebere Eze as they are tired of his unwillingness to commit his future to Nigeria.
Eze made a verbal promise to the president of the NFF Amaju Pinnick that he will commence his switch of allegiance process at the end of last season, but he only recently accepted an invitation to be part of the England U21 team.
Injury made him pull out of their games but the fact that he hasn’t act as agreed when he met with Pinnick has made the NFF to shelve the idea of trying to speak with him even in the future.
“ We wish him the best and hope he enjoys his career with England. I think he has been approached thrice. The last time he promised to start the process at the end of the season but didn’t instead accepted an invitation to be part of the English U21 team.
“ This is a boy who trained with the Super Eagles in 2017. He was a nobody back then but was allowed to train but all of a sudden he feels he is bigger than the team. No one can be bigger than Nigeria, we have moved on”, a chieftain of the NFF told Owngoalnigeria.com.
