Both the Super Eagles of Nigeria and the English national team are closely monitoring to see the decision Chelsea centreback Tosin will make regarding his international allegiance.

UK-based journalist, Ben Jacobs has disclosed that Chelsea defender Tosin Adarabioyo's international future remains undecided.

Adarabioyo set for Nigeria switch

Chelsea defender Tosin Adarabioyo is reportedly poised to switch his international allegiance to Nigeria’s Super Eagles.

The Manchester City academy graduate has made a mark as a Premier League regular with Fulham before joining Chelsea this summer. However, he is yet to receive a call-up to the England national team.

Although he has played 14 times for England’s youth teams at U16, U17, U18, and U19 levels, Adarabioyo has struggled to break into the senior squad, facing stiff competition from Gareth Southgate and Lee Carsley.

After initially declining the opportunity to represent Nigeria, Adarabioyo showed interest in joining the Super Eagles in 2020, and now, four years later, he seems poised to fulfil that ambition.

TalkSPORT correspondent Ben Jacobs has poured cold water on claims that Chelsea's Tosin Adarabioyo is switching international allegiance,

"Understand Tosin Adarabioyo has not yet decided his international allegiance, despite reports he has picked Nigeria," Jacobs wrote on Twitter.

With the international window approaching, the 27-year-old centre-back decision will be closely monitored by both the Nigerian and English national teams.
