Joshua Zirkzee was born to Nigerian parents in the Netherlands, which makes him eligible to play for both countries.
Joshua Zirkzee has already featured for the Dutch at the U-17 level and says his next step is the senior team.
Super Eagles head coach, Gernot Rohr and The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) have been tracking the 18-year-old for a while, with hopes of convincing him to represent the West African nation.
However, when asked if he had thought about playing in the Euros competition for Netherland, Zirkzee told VTBL: “No, I’m not really working on that yet. I’m not a regular based player here, so I don’t think I should think about it then, but I have also seen how fast things can go, so of course, it is very secretly in the back of your mind.
“Oranje is a dream and as a young footballer I think it makes sense to dream about it.”
