Footballer Alexander Iwobi arrives Nigeria

Seems like England's attempts to secure the future of Arsenal star & Jay-Jay Okocha's nephew, Alex Iwobi, has failed as he appears to have committed to Nigeria. Alex Iwobi tweeted his arrival back to Abuja on his official twitter page hours ago. This means he has joined up with the senior Nigeria squad ahead of the Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Egypt this week and according to FIFA Rules, if the 19-year-old plays against Egypt, a competitive fixture, he would no longer be eligible to play for another FIFA Affiliated National team.
