Nigeria look to prise former Tottenham wonderkid Noni Madueke away from the England set-up after he rose to stardom by snubbing Manchester United and excelling at PSV

Nigeria are trying to prise PSV Eindhoven starlet Noni Madueke away from the England set-up.

Former Tottenham forward Madueke, 18, is the latest target for Nigeria in their attempts to convince dual nationality English players to switch allegiances.

Madueke has played for England from under-16 up to under-19 level and has emerged as the latest British youngster to star abroad.

But he is also eligible for Nigeria through his parents and they want to tempt Madueke by handing the teenager a senior international call up.

Madueke left Spurs to join PSV in June 2018 - rejecting Manchester United in the process - and impressed for their youth sides before making his senior debut last season.
