Frosinone defender Caleb Okoli says he is committed to Italy.
The summer signing from Atalanta also qualifies for Nigeria.
Asked about his international plans, Okoli said at his presentation yesterday: "I often talk to my parents about this. I think I'm lucky to have this double chance.
"For now, I'm thinking about playing and hitting the team goal, then the national team will be a consequence.
"I'm hoping for a call from (Luciano) Spalletti and playing for Italian national team which is of the highest level.
"In the future, if the call from Italy does not arrive, I could make the decision on the Nigerian national team."

Go and ask Tammy Abraham, John Fashanu, Dele Ali, Gabby Agbonlahor, etc they will tell u that peoples like Ademola Lookman, Ekong, Odemwinge, make a right decision for choosing Nigeria 🇳🇬. Because they are not longer playing for the oyibo country

Nigeria doesn't need players that use it as a back up plan to gain international recognition. You should go to your Italy

Go to Italy, and forget about Nigeria. There was a Country once called Nigeria put together by wicked British businessmen, to milk the country and cause confusion. Help them rig elections and continue to keep that country in perpetual slavery
