Josh Maja: It is possible to select Bordeaux forward for Nigeria against Ukraine - Rohr

Nigeria coach Gernot Rohr has disclosed Bordeaux forward Josh Maja could be invited for September’s international friendly against Ukraine.

Maja, born in London to Nigerian parents, is eligible to play for either England or the Super Eagles but he is yet to pledge his international allegiance to either nation.

The former Sunderland attacker plays alongside Samuel Kalu in Paulo Sousa’s squad where he has made three Ligue 1 appearances so far this season.

A fortnight ago, the 20-year-old opened his 2019-20 goal account as Bordeaux settled for the spoils against Montpellier in a French Ligue 1 outing.
