Chuba Akpom’s international ambitions are far from over. The Ipswich Town forward, currently on loan from Ajax, has reiterated his strong desire to don the green and white of Nigeria’s Super Eagles.

Born in London to Nigerian parents, the 29-year-old striker represented England at youth level but first announced back in 2019 that he wanted to switch allegiance. Six years later, the journey remains incomplete—yet his determination hasn’t dimmed.

“They’ve made me do the passport stuff,” Akpom revealed to TWTD. “My agent has been in contact with the manager and they’ve always liked me. If I was to get called up, it would be an honour of course.”

Despite a successful club career that includes standout spells at Middlesbrough and now Ipswich, Akpom continues to wait for that all-important senior international debut with the three-time African champions. His message is clear: the dream to represent Nigeria is very much alive.
