Arsenal U23 first choice goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo could get a chance to train with the senior national team of Nigeria later this year according to sources close to coach of the team Gernot Rohr.

Okonkwo who is eligible for England as well hasn’t played at any level for any country meaning he will not be requiring a switch of allegiance process to play for the senior national team of Nigeria.

However he first of all need to maintain a steady run of games and probably be in the frame of a first team debut if he is to get a chance with the Super Eagles.

“ There is a spot for young goalkeepers in the team because the experiment with Maduka Okoye paid off big time. He is now first choice at Sparta Rotterdam, a year ago he was third choice at Fortuna Düsseldorf”, a source close to Rohr told Owngoalnigeria.com.

“ Okonkwo is in the list of players Rohr is monitoring and if all goes according to plan he could be in for a chance to train with the team later this year. He just need to be consistent at the level he is playing now and also be around the first team at Arsenal”.
