Super Eagles: Chelle speaks on Arsenal youngster Nwaneri

Published on April 01, 2025 at 10:27 AM

Super Eagles head coach, Eric Chelle, admitted that it would be difficult to convince youngster Ethan Nwaneri to play for the team.

Nwaneri was born in England to a Nigerian father and an English mother.

The 18-year-old has already played for England but can still switch allegiance to Nigeria.

Chelle claimed that Three Lions head coach, Thomas Tuchel, is also desperate to cap the winger at full international level.

“During my trip to England (to meet with Super Eagles stars like Alex Iwobi and Wilfred Ndidi), I said I would want Nwaneri to play for Nigeria,”; Chelle told SCORENigeria.

“I want the NFF to talk to him, and then I will also speak with him.”;

“It will be hard because England will also want to cap him at full international level.

“But I believe I can convince him because I will speak to him about the game project and where he fits in after the NFF has gotten in touch with him.”;

Nwaneri has caught the eye for Arsenal this season.

He has thus far scored eight goals and made two assists for the Gunners.
