Apparently he has chosen Nigeria https://guardian.ng/sport/obafemi-commits-senior-international-future-to-nigeria/
I am not surprised that he hasn't chosen Ireland as he has neither been raised there nor has he got ethnic Irish as parents. You are often influenced by the loyalty of your parents....hence you get people born in Australia or South Africa for example choosing to play for England, Scotland etc. He has no real link with Ireland.
I know what you mean but it is his place of birth so it must mean something to him. He's with Ireland at the moment so won't panic yet!Enoughpanics at the moment with Saints
Has there been any update on Austins injury? Usually when they keep quiet about it, it's bad and the player is out for a long time.
He got injured on the 23/12 and it was said at the time he would be out for 8 weeks,so going on that should be back by the start of March.
Good write up on Gallaghers season. https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sp...llagher-analysis-strikers-birmingham-14199710 The lad is doing really well with his loan moves, obviously not afraid of a relegation scrap either. Happy for him. Shame we don't need a tall, quick goalscoring striker who isnt afraid of a relegation scrap.
His experience will be useful next season. We need to get some more of the older academy lads into the Championship especially when we are likely to be in it next year
